This bike is a collection of stuff I bought from Kenny Dreer (original instigator of the new Norton) as he was selling off his operation to Stuart Garner. I've had it sitting on the shelf for years, then slapped together a rolling mock-up and tried to sell it to get some play money to finish other projects, thread is here
Since nobody was interested in that deep of a project, and since I re-opened my shop after getting screwed at my paycheck job, I decided to tear it down and build it out. This is a "catch-up" on the project that started back in February...
As a rolling mock-up, it was missing several major components including crank, transmission, isolastic mounts ($$) and lots of little stuff. But, it gave you a good idea what it might look like.
Here's a much better example of what it will look like (but without the excessive drillings)-
There is no question in my mind that this bike will EASILY be able to do the Ton!
