    Hunter S Thompson would love you for maintaining the breed.

    They're so. . . . .. .British. But fast machines.

    Beautiful example of a bygone era. I graduated high school in '72 and really lusted for a Commando but couldn't afford one. The sound of a good running Norton at "full chat" is music! My KTM 950 with Akrapovic pipes comes close. Wish I had one to drool over in my garage. Maybe if I reduce my fleet I could make it happen!

    Thanks for posting, Flat top.

    BTW, my "fleet" consists of the aforementioned '04 KTM 950 ADV, '05 Yamaha FJR, '35 Ford 5 window Coupe, '08 BMW 335i Sport coupe. Then there's the '16 Silverado, a '14 Highlander and the 315RLTS. The tires alone keep me in the poorhouse!

    X2 on that! First bike was a '69 BSA "thumper". The Norton was out of my reach at 18 (that was so long ago).
