Yeah, interesting Rich. Ya know Ivan, in my reference to South Bay Triumph/Norton which I mentioned above, I forgot to add that I guess it's now also S/B Triumph/Norton/Royal Enfield. Yep, Matt Capri the owner of that establishment also had three of those bikes at the show here. And I have to say I thought they at least "looked" pretty well made anyway.
So Ivan, what specifically makes you say that about 'em?
(oh and BTW...I had the pleasure to talk with one of your somewhat reknowned countrymen at the show once again this year, famed racer and motojournalist Alan Cathcart, who was hobling around on a cane due to his recent high-siding while aboard a Buell 1125RR at the Barber track in Alabama)
