thanks, as you can see from the picture , the fenders, trees, and headlight ears were in pretty bad shape, so it just seemed natural to paint them.... I like the overall vibe.
aww shucks..thanks.............If you did have an award for me it would be a cheap award..... coffee (or bass ale) is my usual currency when favors or awards are doled out
I have to tell you........ I just got ahold of an 85 Honda VT500c which, in comparison to the 71 basketcase, is like a brand new bike: It's a honda so it needs some carb cleaning, a couple of cables and hoses etc. and it will run for another 25,000 miles.... I got the bike for 100 bucks and by spring time it will probably be all rigged up for commuting. Shaft drive, water cooled, cheep parts, electric start, 50+ mpg. it's begging to be a commuter.
....... but it just ain't as much fun to work on and ride as Old Strunzo. That is the bike I'm keeping until my body gives out and I can't start it any more, then my son will get it.
I wouldn't sell my Norton but it's nice I can ignore the Hondas and just turn the key.
I hope I can get a few minutes for the Norton today as you have inspired me.
