Just wanted to share. Bout 1/2 way home.

Brushin' up on your isolastic adjustin' skills? 
Let's just say it's a darned good thing it came with a full factory service manual (repo)
I did ride it up there and round the driveway here just a little while ago.
Read through the 1/2" thick pile O service receipts, think I saw about 5-6K worth.
Owned by this guy and his brother? (same last name) since 1985

THIS He wouldn't even talk about (I tried a couple times!)

Nicely done! You got the pick of the litter for sure!
Oooooooo...I need a cigarette. And a towel...
I know there are much better/faster/reliable/stable bikes out there these days but there's just something so SEXY about a Norton.
