They have 2 Nortons listed so I guess they are credible.

Where is the Yamaha FJ 1100? This was thee "Benchmark" bike! Had one new the only thing close to it in performance and handling was the Honda CB 1100!
A little carb jetting, low restriction header exhaust and cut out rev limiter crazy power!

DON'T MISUNDERSTAND ME!

The Classic Bonneville is almost always included in all of these "Top ### Motorcycles" lists, because it is arguably right up there in every case.

The fact that I've owned 43 Classic ones, and 1 modern one, attest to my preference.

I’ve got a Harley and I love it… but there are far too many Harley’s in that list !
