Show us your Classic M/C

Inspired by the TR6C, TR7T and Norton P11, almost ready for MOT, just a couple of cableties here and there

Passed MOT today, advisory on loud exhaust:augie
 
Got this a couple of months ago. Same R100GSPD model as Blackbob's in post 292 but not quite as shiny :)

Definition of a classic?

At the Manx GP this year the classic racing included a post classic class which included Suzuki GSXR's (cut off date 1985) racing against T150 tridents - now that is stretching it a bit! - they're not exactly scott flying squirrels now are they - as for the 20 year old Africa twin I wouldn't like to come between a man and his dreams! if the marque lives on after production ceases and people are willing to keep them alive they'll all be classics.
Honda c90 anyone?:rob

Dominator 99

I gave my mate a lift to Ballymena this morning so that he could pick up his 'new' bike - a 1963 Norton Dommie 99. I had a few miles on it when we got home, it really is a lovely bike to ride. Just as vibey as I remember them although it's 40 years since I last had me leg over one :eek: A nice powerful mill which just wants to keep on going although I did have to respect the fact that she's an old lady so backed off at 75 :augie

He's a bit embarrassed about the Reg No though :tosser :aidan
