Much like that one girl that everyone had in their graduating class, Terry Malpass's 1997 Royal Star Standard, Gilgamesh, has a dubious reputation for putting out . . . horsepower! To see it out on the street, one might mistake it for Clark Kent of motorcycles, handsome but mild-mannered . . . But one flick of the wrist and 'Gil's modified, liquid-cooled, V-4, power-plant will go Superman on you, leaving most cruisers in the dust to ponder what it was they liked about V-Twins in the first place.

The Modifications Terry has made to Gilgamesh reads like any given Star rider's

make your hair stand on end! Parts include:

Mission accomplished! | ||||
