Always remember to be yourself. Unless you suck. Then pretend to be someone else.

That is a pretty sweet looking Norton.  It looked like it made long journey from the rusty pieces of metal shown in the article. How many cc's is that, 500?

I want one! My oldest is 1954, I really want at least one from 1900 to 1909 and one from 1910 to 1920 and one from 1920 to 1930 and one from 1930 to 1940 but I will never see the kind of money that would take. When I bought my bikes of my 2 50s bikes the 58 cost me most at $500 and my 66 TR6C most out of all my bikes at $600.(Not including the 04)
I learned all I need to know about life by killing smart people and eating their brains.

That's a lot of time and some very good work there.
