Chamo, ask 'em when they're going to deliver your 750cc postie bike (free delivery of course...)

Already here Padi, Already here !..........Triumph 900 cc Sprint, AND IN POSTIE RED .....

And while I,ve got the camera in the shed, My family accuse me of being a hoarder, but personally I dont know what they are talking about......

Spoiler

The scary part is there are around half a dozen sheds like this, some much bigger with old cars & motorcycles collected up over the years........

Nice bike Chamo................I prefer the retro style 960 Nortons though, maybe when we finish the rebuild of the '71 Commando............

I have still have still got the first road bike I purchased when I was 17. A Yamaha XS1 650 in very good original condition. That would be as close as I could get to the Nortons...........But I did find something else in the shed when poking around the other day......

The TX-A 650 was my second bike,(the first was a Honda 750 four and then later in life I got the XS2).

With a Suzuki GS police special in between that I got up to 180 KH passing some idiot that wanted to play

chicken,(looking back on that road now it wasn't a wise decision),

I only rode a Norton once and never again,(went flying through a four way because the "brakes" weren't

working due to them being on the wrong side),

I had one of the TX 650's Taz, but I had problems with it being prone to "tank slappers" for no known reason, even a Kwakka 900 damper wouldn't fix it.................

You were lucky you didn't strip bits off the gearbox on the Norton though, using it as a "brake"
