Insanity?

[Triple Trouble]

I’m not sure if I’ve completely taken leave of my senses but today a great deal on two Norton Commando Frames led me into an Aladdin’s cave of Britbike treasures and I somehow ended up owning a pile of engines, gearboxes, forks, cylinders, heads, alternators etc., etc. along with a pair of running Norton’s. A 1974 Commando and a sweet 1968 Dominator 650 Super Sport, both needing the usual TLC but the 650 really got me going. Hopefully I’ll be back on my meds soon before I really lose it!

Oh yeah, TO r, you definitely suffer from some sort of malady, but I wouldn't call it insanity. OCD, perhaps or maybe an addictive behavior disorder, but crazy is in the eye of the beholder and from where I sit, I behold that not!

If buying a well priced 750 Commando is the definition of insanity .. better get the guys with the big butterfly net around to my joint pronto... well done I reckon.

Insanity?? I think not....... An eye for great things - oh yeah!!!
Well done mate.

1974. The year I got my driver's license and had posters in my bed room of a Triumph 650 Bonnie with peashooters, a Ducati 650 Desmo and a Norton Commando (and some Levis posters with the best arse I've still ever seen, but that's another story). I wanted them all. Nothing insane about your purchases mate.

I belong in that looney bin.

Something to listen to as you try to figure out which part goes where...

Well, looks like we are all one big happy family. I see the men in the white coats all the time, nothing crazy about any of us!

I happen to be a bit of a Norton Nut so I can probably sort that out blindfolded. The 650 SS is the one I am excited about.

Do they have cameras in Canada?
