Hi all, several years ago I bought a 1964 Norton Atlas 650 in Napa, Ca. It was a barn find in and in pretty sad shape but I bought it because I wanted to save it, the old hippie couple that owned it were liquidating their entire estate to move. He told me some stories about their adventures on it, in 1967 they rode it to Haight-Ashbury for the "Summer of Love" in SF, then when Easy Rider came out he had it raked out into a chopper, he had a coffin gas tank with a custom paint job put on it and even had the helmets painted to match (Which came with the bike). They took many trips on it but they quit riding it when their daughter was born and it ended up in the barn. I set myself a goal of 15 years to restore it but life has other plans for my time and money. Is there anyone that has enough love for these bikes to save this one and how do I find them?
Thanks, Danny
