Alas, there appear to be no extant 'photos of the Wheezehound.
However I did manage to locate pictures of three models produced by teh original Spagthorpe company. The Wheezehound would have looked rather similar, though it was of course somewhat less conventional (Note that all Spagthorpe models are named after dogs) .

We may also note that light weight was NOT one of the Spagthorpe design criteria

Ixion, I do believe you're the most knowledgeable person alive in regards to Spagthorpe history. Obviously you've invested a huge amount of time in researching the marque.

Have you thought of recouping some of the immense costs involved, through publishing a book on the subject?

fooey, Im just too busy to waste time on unproductive threads. anyway I dont talk to uncultured japbike riders such as you lot. my motorcycle sets me far above you all in the wank value stakes, and I just cant bring myself to come down to your level and explain its wonders.

My prediction. Ms Fish has a penis [ or an extremley large clitoris], and does not have a Spagthorpe.
I have fact's to back up these assertion's

Fish isn't the only one with a Spagthorpe.

Pete376403, who lives round the corner from me, has an original, unrestored example in his gargre...

I thought Pete376403 favoured the Elbonian Zorch over the Spagthorpe?

The Zorch . Pah . A pale imitation of the Spagthorpe. Like the Jappa crusiers pretending to be Harleys (*dons flame proof suit. Heads at high speed for the LART shelter* )

That don't signify. I myself ride a Yamaha, as do many of the more intellectual members. I also used to ride a Honda, a Suzuki, a Kawasaki, a Triumph and assorted other scrap metal. Never a Spragthorpe though.
