The Excelsior Reels off the Miles while Others Stop to Catch Their Breath The Excelsior' is the fastest s tock Motorcycle in the world. It has a certain "snap" and "punch" that just carries its riders in perfect safety to easy victory. The best part of it all is tha t the EXCELSIOR "always makes good." You can depend upon .that absolutely and positively. No other machine has a show when the Giant-powered "Ex" is on the entries. We back up our statements with pictorial proof a:id uncontrovertible facts The records below are of the races held .it I'.-.lnnd, Ore. They are more than cut and dried figures. Please note these interesting facts: . In Race No. f the winning "Ex" was a special stripped stock. Mo tor madif 5 miles in 4:40 from a standing start. The fastest mile was reeled off in 51 seconds flat. This machine was used by Mr. L. C. Rose, president of the Excelsior Motorcycle Co., Inc., of Portland, Oregon, for 17,000 miles, and has never received the slightest bit of repairs outside of two new piston rings two days before the race. The 5 mile professional 4 II. P. ported race was won by Mr. Sim mons, a 180 pound man, on an "Ex" which ran C8.000 miles in actual service for the Portland R. L. & Power Company. And so it goes. Be hind each "individual Ex" victory is a bit of interesting history. SIXY'FIRSTS," ONE "SECOND" OUT OF SEVEN RACES.
