swooshdave Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 Ok, I know it's a Norton video but when was the last time you saw two V11 Sports in one video? Colin has a great Scura. Bought it new from Moto International. Last time I checked it had 60k miles on the original clutch. For an added bonus there's an 850 LeMans too. And how many of you know what an Egli is? 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kane Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 Wow. That’s motorbike heaven. And a Vincent, too! I wonder, is the Vincent a daily rider? How’d you get the aerial shot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
footgoose Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 Now I know where all the Nortons are. Egli are best with Vincent imo. Etched in my mind for decades... Hands down the best looking motorcycle ever. A local gent imported this one this past summer. $$$$$. Thanks again for posting motoporn. Inspirational. Makes me think of getting another ..

footgoose Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 Speaking of aerial view, the video link I posted in Adv Bikes shows some intriguing drone shots of 2 riders with no assistance, riding in some great scenery. Can a drone be programmed to follow the operator? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

footgoose Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 Dave it's a movie series on Amazon prime now called the Himalayas Calling. Like long way round but shorter and cheaper. They supposedly were alone with no chase vehicles. Link in 'Adventure bikes' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R.I.P. Mikko Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 I do love a classic Norton.... It's a shame the guy who started up the "New" Norton turned out to be a a&*hole. Last I heard. they were shut down and in bankruptcy, but before they did that they ripped a guy off who had his mega buck VR4 in for warranty work. Stripped it for parts to finish another one he said. Came up there and picked up what was left of his bike. Norton scandal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R.I.P. Mikko Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 I would have never considered being called a Luddite in a positive way. Smart phone controlled drones? What a strange trip it’s been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
