This picture isn’t of my bike but it’s just like her.

A pretty lady indeed. British motorbikes were quite popular back in the hippie days (1968 was right in the ballpark). My one friend in Colorado had a Norton which he was in love with, literally. He treated that bike better than his girlfriend.

When I bought my bike she was 19 years old but looked like she'd just left the showroom floor. Some guy had her setting in his garage for years and never rode her. When I cleaned her up she shined like a new penny.

Only problem I had with her was that she was a tad big for me. I'm only 5'2 and weighed about 96 lbs when I had her. LOL!
