    That looks like a pair of well-loved motorcyles.

    I picked up this 75' Norton a few months ago and then decided to do a frame up on it after sorting through all the oil leaks.

    After going through the complete bike I am putting it back with a few updates, probably be a week before it will be on the road

    Are you in the So Cal Norton Owners Club?

    Good source for Norton knowledge and bits.

    The brake system front and back are new Brembos, along with a hydraulic clutch.

    got lucky and picked this up for a great price last summer, most enjoyable bike I've owned out of 9 so far and the one I'll never sell...

    This Trident has well loved written all over it. Every part, scuff, and mark tells this bikes story over the last 40 years. I just love it.

    I'm with ya. Nothin'' fancy/shiney, but no dents, no rust, no baling wire, no missing spokes, etc. Clean motor, good tires, lubed chain. Very nice example of a bike that looks like it's appreciated for what it is and does. Love it.
    Doesn't hurt that I love Tridents either.

    Thanks for the comments on my Trident guys.
    i have had many bikes have a interesting stable even now .
    I really love this bike . puts a grin on my face just starting it up.
    and i do ride it . (need tires) but a blast on this equals many other bikes and rides that i do .

    Cool bikes - one of these days I'm going to buy myself a Ducati, I can feel a mid life crisis coming on already. But first a I need to find a camera that takes pictures two years into the future! :D

    I got that camera when I bought my DeLorean...... it was in the glove box. Funny thing, I have had the camera for 10 years and still can't change the date.....WTF ????
