thanks for all the positive comments, .. re camera onbike.. we used a go-pro.. great little camera.. some shots were taken with the camera on the tank using the suction mount that comes with the camera.. the rest were made from custom mounts I made.. one a bracket with a dog legged tube from the steering lock hole on the top fork yoke.. the other was a bracket mounted to the front frame down tubes

I have no idea how to allow this clip to run on an Iphone..will ask my son on the weekend.

Hoping to make another doco of this years ride( sept).. though seem to be struggling to find the time. The great feedback is helping with the motivation though.. hopefully my son is feeling the same way!!!!!!!!!!

ABSOLUTELY BLOODY BRILLIANT! You'll be making ML home sick conkey!

Bloody dead right Foxy, only consolation is over here in Vic, my bike is still on WA plates....and the riding country is way better. Good to see my mates doing Norton proud.

"The author of this video does not allow iPhone playback."
How depressing since that is all I have right now.
Any chance you can change that?

It may be able to be changed by the video's owner:

But in this case where he used "licensed" music, they may not allow it.

I'm having my head studs getting repaired right now and my bike is torn apart, then along comes this video and all I want to do is go ride.
That was the greatest video.
Of all the times I had wanted to get rid of my Nortons cuz I was always working on them.
Not now, no way.
Great sound track.

Thank you very much! Great video and thank you for taking the time to make it. It's a great person who's willing to put in that time and effort for the benefit of strangers when you could of just sat back and enjoyed the event without all that work. Hat's off to ya!

I've just got up after a night shift feeling pretty s*it, and this video has just lifted my day. Thanks.

When I see the Commandos, I still think that they are as a whole, one of the most evocative bikes ever built. They just look and sound right!
