Right you are! (It's hard to do this with modern bikes!)
Yeah, I saw it at Barber (along with the DKW) when I did a trackday there.

Ok, this is a purpose built, factory bike. Who made it, and what was it for?

I'm thinking it's a hill-climb bike, small displacement Excelsior-Henderson?

What can I say, sometimes you're the windshield, sometimes you're the bug.
Here you go, trying to stick with the modern theme. Saw one of these in person once, but can't find the picture: Whoops, hang on, forgot to edit out the name.

Yep, not bad. It's a Morbidelli V-8!
It's a small Italian firm that made hugely successful 50cc GP bikes for a while, and even had some success with larger bikes, and for some reason theowner just decided to make a 1000cc, v-8 road-going bike. It bombed.
