Bitchin Norvil Brake, boy did I want one of those back in the day -

Somebody was lookin at this and they said "Matchless made twins?"

BSAs always had nice tanks - Thunderbolt -

Always liked those Triumph scrambler headpipes

V7 Sport's came with nice brakes -

There were Commandos aplenty -

I ALWAYS wanted a NorVin, still do; thats a GB500 front end, rear wheel too? -

In the 70s & 80s, I put a lot of miles on one of these -

That decal looks good on this round case bevel GT750 but, as I recall, it derives from a 60's 175cc Ducati

Probably an optical illusion but that front end looks bent to me.

I want to thank you for posting the photos, that show/ride is only about a 30 min ride from my house & I planned to go but work snagged me. It was painful being so close but not being able to go. Please post more pictures anyone if you can. Glenn.

Gorgeous bikes/photos! Thanks for posting them - Love that Ariel Square 4!!!! But I don't see any oil drips below the bikes. I'm concerned that they may not have any oil in them; better call those guys and have 'em check their oil...
