In addition t0 the worlds absolute motorcycle speed record, Allen has beaten six worlds speed records for various classes and distances plus two American speed records. ‘When seting records in the $00cc.

Tes interesting to ote that neither of Allen's Triumph engines were equipped with superchargers, yet the world records which he broke were previously established with supercharged engines. The rules of the American Motorcycle Association do not permit “ the use of superchargers although the rules of the FIM do per: miesupecchargers for world record attemp. Jack Wilson, Service Manager for Pete Dali's Triumph Sales in Fort Worth, Texas, stated that all pars used in the engines weve factory extaloged items available over the counter to any fone.

He's an active organizer among entausiats and recently won a trophy fom the American Motor- cycle Assocition — a group that strsies ry inte KONS NOVEMBER ‘courtesy and safety on the rad. Motorcycle people haven't forgottea Mr Brando's portrayal of a roughneck two: wheeler fiend in the movies. “There aren't many people like that. And we alwass tell our boys to remember 2 man on 2 mocoreycle stunds out. Ie’ up 10 every one of us to keep up che tepuration of the spore.” Ruy has been in the motoreycle business since 1921. During Werld War II he kepe a big leter file in his offce where he outed laters to, from and between Cin: Ccinnati_motoreycle enthusiasts serving in wuaifoem. vi, NL Lenbertite He lives at 5260 Werk Roud, but you're more likely to catch him at his Harley: Davidson store at 1924 Central Parkway. “Take a look at this. We keep this card up in the score all the time. ‘Obey all traffic Iaws. Be a good citizen. Use a legal mule ‘We make sure our people do just that. No dealer wants to have a seputition for consorting with roughnecks. No motorcycle owner wants t0 have that sort of repata- tion either. "And as « lifelong resident around here, 1 sure dont want that kind of people in my neighborhood.” Axemmicax’ MoroncrennseA (CENTRAL NEW YORK STATE MOTORCYCLE DEALERS ASSOCIATION John Cieza, Pres.
