This is a bike I've drooled over since I was a pup. There's about four or five fantastic British bikes I could put here. Bikes that are much more popular and more renowned. The BSA Goldstar, The Triumph T100C and the Norton Commando 750S are all contenders for a spot. But to be honest I find this bike to be much more striking than just about every other British bike on the planet. That chrome thank with the old school lettering, and the general stance and line of the bike just hits the perfect notes for me. I have a local friend who is the "go-to" british bike mechanic and he raves about this bike in looks AND engineering. He doesn't understand how they were overlooked for so many decades by British bike fans. Neither can I.
