Well im going to look at this very soon

It will come with the much better 5 gallon long range tank tho

 

no messing about with this one then Paul.

 

Looks tidy Paul.

 

That looks mint mate.

 

A picc with the bigger tank

 

what happened with the others then in the end that looks bang tidy

 

bloke was a cock

Kin ell.

Rod's got a big brother

 

 

Cracking bikes these are i remember an old friend of mine from school his dad had one, we used to ride bmx (street/ park riding) when we was in his garage changing parts on the bmx he used to say if you go anywhere near my bike i will wrap your bmx round ya neck !

 

Thats smart

my dads just told me after seeing the above pictures my uncle had a norton in the late 70's that he payed nearly 2k for but cant remember if it was a manx or not, or even a replica. i'll have to find out.

Out of interest did you have any luck with the vale onslow link i sent you? Just wondering

Joe.

 

Paul, I had a word with my Dad, he recons between 17-20k for a gennie one!!! if you can find one as not always the real thing!!

 

*whistles*

Wooooooooooooooooah that'll go much further

Nice one mate. Hope you sort something

 

wow,i could look at that for age's..........

 

No chance of a real deal one for that money mate

 

Beautiful!

 

you bought it then mate

 

That's one hell of a piece of engineering and I could walk about that taking in every single detail for quite some time I can't believe the detail in there! single cylinder?? What's the cc?

 

Why would you want the uglier 5 gallon tank when you'll probably never use even one gallon of fuel before it goes off from old age?

Looks cool on the smaller tank I reckon

 

The bigger Tank is a special part of a manx , Its like a 500s front splitter

Its still a 500 without it but looks sooooo much better with it

 

Lovely , all the nostalgia stuff is such big money these days, even the modern classics like the RG and RD500s.

 

Fair enough, I dont know enough about them to know what classes as being a good one or not, just know that to my personal taste it looks good on the small tank.

 

gotcha.

personally like the smaller one.

but if the bigger one is cooler... then

 

did you get it then paul?

 

What a beautiful bike!!!!. I love the old British singles. I used to own a BSA Clubmans Goldstar in my younger days , which was a racer for the roads. I used to regularly piss off the Triumph and Norton twin boys with it .I always promised myself another one but couldnt justify spending the sort of money they were fetching around 7 years ago, so I ended up buying a 1977 KZ Kawasaki 1000 which is a classic in its own right, for a third of the price.

 

not my cuppa tea !! but there again paul u are starting to get near pipe and sliper age

 

Going a week on sunday to see it

 

Jesus wept - the tag FROTF

paul rides bikes 'n cocks
