And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
Where to start... Appears to be solid mount of the engine/trans to the frame. Might as well go play with an old Triumph twin. Single carb, too small for the engine. Small or detuned engine, maybe. Didn't bother to engineer enough clearance for the carb cable. No hose clamps on fuel or oil lines. Perimeter frame design paired with a low performance engine. Why bother? Oil tank inside fuel tank. Yeah, lets warm up our fuel, and keep the oil hotter. Clutch cable too short. Timing cover missing a screw at the very bottom. Frame welding looks non-professional. Blobby fillets. Tank profile doesn't match frame. Poor seat/tank interface. Yeah, lets toss everything that made the Norton Commando a first class British twin. From what is shown, it was built for style only. Phitttt!!!!
must not have any oil in it.
ReplyDeleteMaybe it's a painting.
ReplyDeleteWon't leak if it's not running and Lucas took care of that
