    This Mk2 Quasar is probably the last one built by Malcolm Newell, since it was not finished. These photos were taken when it was displayed at the Calne Bike Meet in 2009.
    In 2016 it was bought by John Bruce.

  • Chris Baker in VF750 Quasar with Panniers, in Köln, 1986

    Honda VF750 Quasar (1986)

    Probably the best marriage of a modern motorcycle engine with the classic Quasar shape, further enhanced by the use of a Bob Tait hub centre steering system. Honda's V-Four shaft driven motor could almost have been designed for the Quasar! Malcolm built this machine in 1986 and it has just been revived by John Cooper after languishing in a garage for many years. PNB
