Hesketh

Does anyone know what happened to Paul Sleeman, he was reviving the Hesketh name, he bought the rights off Broome (I think) but all seems to have gone quiet. There was a sighting at Goodwood of a monster new bike but nothing for a long time, is he still involved with Hesketh?

A fair bit of activity this year on the Hesketh Facebook page including a link to their updated website detailing their production '24' model here:

Looks impressive, high quality kit

Stupid question of the day... The video of the 24 on Steve Jordan's "rollers”.... I couldn't see a rear wheel spinning or wheel rollers, was that just the angle and my poor eyesight? Likewise I saw no aparatus for crank or sprocket measurement but the engine was sounding/behaving under load, to me at least

Have been trying to contact Paul Sleeman but cant get a response from him, does anyone have a contact address. I understand he has given up the Redill premises. Cheers

Weel, according to their post on 18 Dec 2015...

• Hesketh Motorcycles Update*

We are leaving our Redhill premises to concentrate totally on manufacturing of our new bikes. A great opportunity presented itself that we could not say no to. We will publish the details in the new year when the move is completed.

So I guess maybe the move hasn't been completed yet, you could try posting something on their FB page asking for a contact?

I believe ACT Performance Products of TVR Fame are making all the carbon bits for the new bikes. From what I've seen it all looks very good.
