It was the usual fleet of Japanese one, two and four cylinder machines with a mix of one, two and three cylinder British bikes and a BMW airhead. Skipped the Italians and Harleys.

The bike I miss the most and would buy again despite breaking down like clockwork was a Norton Commando Production Racer.

That's a beautiful bike! My favorite to look at was a Moto Morini 3 1/2 Sport in yellow. Long gone, but missed. Now I just ride old Guzzis and KLR's. Can't give up the bikes.

I have to admit that a Norge 8V could lure me back into the sport.

I imagine your beautiful Morini would be worth a fortune today. Like my Norton PR, they were ahead of their time.
