It's hard to get worked up about a single carb guy who never goes above five grand and thinks he's really sporty!
I don't think those car rims on there are doing much for you either .
All written in my best OZ.

That's the spirit! My Norton's better than your Norton.
 
Besides, I don't have to do more than 5000rpm to see off those lardy underpowered MIIIs anyway!

My 71 Commando. Starts on the 1st kick, every time. I put the front disc on as it my daily driver and need better stopping power in the city. Corbin seat looks ... okay; very comfortable. Also own a 68 TR6P which is solid, reliable and a great looker but the Norton is a superior machine. Both sound awesome.

With your big cam killing the low end , the single
Mikuni killing the top and a Full auto head full of carbon ,, you wouldnt do well against a stocker, mk3 or other.
Might get some of the carbon out tho.

Am I getting better at this?

Well, amateurish, and filled with errors, but, you're moving in the right direction!

Nice bike! One of my favourite Norton colours. Oh, and your gearshift is on the correct side.

Let's put it this way, The MKIII is like the ugly as a man but even uglier as a woman transsexual with three day old stubble, standing on a street corner in a two sizes too small leopard print mini dress. You respect his/her right to exist, but I'm not hooking up with you!!!!!

This statement tells us that you are secretly fascinated and desirous of the MK3. Not only that , there is something else going on there......oh dear, best to look away!!! :shock:


Armchair psychologists! Delusional as always. This post has been exhumed, dusted off, given a new dress, had a bit of makeup applied, a stick shoved up it's arse, sorry, ass (for the Yanks who can't spell properly) and placed on a pedestal.

The carcass is like a MKIII. Bloated and given a new lease of life for effeminate posers who wouldn't know how to kickstart a big Brit twin to save their lives or how to deal with a gearshift on the correct side.

Take it back to the mortuary ladies! It's on the nose!

My eighteen yo daughter was returning home by bus from a short holiday in Ayrshire and was seated next to a competitor in The Miss Highland Queen Drag Contest in Inverness , don't know how my old 750 would do in the quarter mile against a MK111.

I do not post very often and probably should not join in this but

I would have thought that a guy called fullauto would be riding a scooter and would not recognise a gearstick.

You thought wrong, didn't you?
 
My main ride is a 74 850 slightly modded. Stock carbs, comnoz breather and cam tension tricks. Andy chain bits. Maney belt drive, etc. Nothing to write home about. Just a good reliable ride. My euphoric moments were on my
72 Combat and a Cessna 150 on my second solo flight. I don't know why I felt so good then? Just shyte I remembered.
Cheers,
