Absolutely lovely. I'll bet it's even more fun than it looks like it should be.

This is my favorite so far of your impressive stable. Shifts on the wrong side, but in this case it can be overlooked.

My hat's off to you Paul.

Tom

really nice bike m8.

i went to a vintage bike race earlier this year, you'd have love that THUNDERSPRINT, bikes from 1916 to present day racing . They had a spitfire flyover too.

To me that one shifts on the side it's supposed to. Sweet ride!

You should take it to the Delaware Valley Norton Riders event at Washington Crossing State Park, an hour North of Philly. "Annual gathering of the Nortons" it's in the spring, quite a turnout of Nortons and other interesting bikes. Here is a link

Their motto is "Ride 'em, Don't Hide 'em!"


Women and cats will do as they please. Men and dogs should just get used to that fact and relax

Mikey, I never miss the Larz Anderson classic. My favorite of all shows. My late brother and I have pulled trophies there in the past. In 2004 I was interviewed and appeared with my choppers (see Triumph Twins in other bikes)on the show The Ride. 'Hope to see you there.
