Paint is perfect.

Bike runs, rides and shifts EXCELLENT!!!!!!!!!

Clear INDIANA title (to me) in hand. Bike is licensed and insured to me.

This is my personal motorcycle. I just spent the day on it and clocked 230 miles without 1 single issue. 

Bike always performs perfectly and dependable, I am passionate about it. 

This is more of a "Hot Rod" with riding/performance upgrades rather than a "Restoration".
 
A purist will spend far too much time picking it apart rather than riding and enjoying it. 

If you are looking for a 100% original bike with the original air in the tires...this isn't it.

However, if you want a FAST, reliable NORTON to ride daily and be able to keep up with modern bikes...this is your pony!


Come check it out in person...you won't be sorry!


Cheers
