Mystery Ship 5
Mystery Ship 5 was produced in the standard Vetter Mystery Ship colour scheme.
It is fitted with three spoke Dymag wheels.
The engine is normally aspirated.
This motorcycle was originally purchased by Norman Jones of Kansas City and was sold at the Las Vegas Motorcycle Auction in 2004.
It is currently on display at the Throttlestop Museum, 20 Victory Lane, Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin 53020.
See Throttlestop.com for further details of the museum.
Update:
On 9th March 2021, I received this comment from Nic at Throttlestop Motorcycle Museum.
“Mystery Ship #6 is proudly displayed next to its sister, #5 at The Throttlestop Motorcycle Museum in Elkhart Lake, WI.”

Craig and I will collate this information and publish that which we can verify.
#5 was purchased by my Dad and kept in his basement for many years before it was moved to my basement. Dad finally sold it around 2000 with the original shipping crate.
Thanks for your comment, Norman. I have sent you an e-mail.
