Nice Bike - suggest you spot yourself some extra fuses in your saddle bags just in case Mr Murphy and Mr Lucas are along for a ride. Enjoy and be safe. Looks great without the turn signals!

Thanks. I've sold all but the '57 Nash convert., but stuff I've owned over the years. OODLES of bicycles ( still have most..ha!) and vintage toys, and the general antiques, signs juke box,
If someone sells a bike that has gasoline leaks and electrical problems then they are not an "ace" mechanic, nor is anyone else who has worked on the bike in the past or it would not have those problems. If a real mechanic works on a British bike then it runs and works period.
Also, the definition of a "time-capsule" is something that is original and not restored but in nice original condition. Original unrestored bikes are much harder to find that restored ones, which can be had any day of the week if you wallet is fat enough.
Hey Friend, Noticed your customized Norton on another thread. Cool wheels and it sounds like you know your stuff. I'm humbled by your knowledge and what sounds like more than advanced mechanical skills WAY beyond my abilities. I know my way around basic motor/electrical but the key word is "basic". My bicycle skills are better, but after 40 years I'm still learning new things. I looked back on my initial post and saw that I used the almost "time capsule" term/restoration together so I do in fact know the difference. "Original" is a slippery slope to enter as once a nut or bolt has been replaced, it is no longer original. Enjoy the ride.
A 1962 Norton 650ss. Upgrades include a two-leading-shoe backing plate in the front to help braking, a larger rear tail light to help safety, and a conversion to 12V electric system also for safety to make the lights brighter at night. All the numbers on this bike match the factory records, it...

Nashman - quite an impressive collection. Quite the eclectic 50's and 60's escape room you have created. I have a '69 eldorado similar to your '67 model that needs rebuilding if you are interested in a project car?
