had it for 35 years in one form or another.standard bike was pretty plain so decided to go a bit different.just finished making the seat for it.It goes like sh..t off a stick too.I wish I was 30 years younger to really push it to its limits but geez I love riding it.

Making hay while the sun shines,yesterday the dealer was a little late getting the car sorted and after the hour of how this and that works we hit the road smack into peak hour from Brisbane to make our way home,p-ssing with rain roads blocked with traffic all trying to get out of the city,2.5 hours later we are home this should be a hour max.
Stuff that and thousands do this everyday.Now I say faaark that

thanks guys.I also know where lots of old nortons,triumphs etc are stored in sheds.The owners are all old farts who wont sell and wont restore them.They live in a false dream that one day their kids will restore them.

Great looking bike Tank. I dont know how they do the traffic thing either. On the channel 10 news of an evening they have a traffic helicopter, every night there is a major traffic jam somewhere.

Surely the perceived benefits of the city are outweighed by factors such as this or the crime level. Give me living in the country anyday.

I have lots of favourite bikes, but this is my current every day.

On a trip over the Bridle Track from Bathurst to Hill End.



I also have a 1982 Harley which I can't find a photo of because my expanded drive is toast.....
