At a classic motorbike show recently.
Saw this rider had all the right safety gear for riding.
Looks great, but not sure if it will really protect in an accident.....

Nice shot Marty, that helmet and goggles would go well with my Norton!

Very nice bike Roger.
That's a beautiful classic bike, but still comfartable to ride and reliable.
I am always on the look out for a 40's/50's Norton, BSA, Ariel, etc.
Single sprung seat and suspension optional...!!!!
But the prices are just getting too much for a weekend ride for me.

Marty I've got a 1937 Aerial 500cc twin port head rigid that I've been trying to get work done on for a while now........I'll get there eventually. The idea is to make it a bobber style with minimal everything. Glad you like the Nort!
Roger.

One of my buddies and his cousin restored 2 identical Commandos- the only difference between the two was personalized stitching on the seats. Fantastic bikes.
