Have been considering buying the JPS for some time now. I have been lurking around for a bit and have appreciated all of the great info from all of you experienced Norton owners. Now I am finally ready to pull the trigger and could use some of your advice.
I found an immaculate JPS with only 9,000 original miles on it for $7,000. I love the looks but am worried it is not practical. Has anyone here ever riden one? How does it ride? Would like to take on 400 mile trips occasionally and am wondering if the cafe stance would get old. I have sat on the bike a number of times but never riden it.
The other question I have is while sitting on the bike, my foot dosen't seem to want to bend up enough to activate the brake, is this normal for these bikes? Are you supposed to lift your foot up off the peg and down to activate the brake?
Thanks ahead, Todd
