There is an elderly gent near me, that I first saw pobbling about the streets on what looked like a smallish manx norton. Sounded like one too !


Took a long time to catch up with him, and the bike turned out to be just a small H*nda dressed up like a manx norton - tank, seat, clipons, megaphone. All home made, on a budget. From a distance you couldn't tell the difference. Looked like he was having fun...


P.S. He also had a little 'G50' in preparation, same theme. The 'tank' was just a fibreglass cover over the original tank, homebrewed. And the race seat a neat fibreglass work. You start to realise that half the recognition of a G50 is in that red tank, and a cafe shape fills in the rest of it ...


You might call that drivel, but thats what motorcycling is made of.
