my eyes are sore. the headlight / fairing bugs me (pun intended) and the half a harley isnt doing it for me in place of that wide single cylinder i expect in a manx. it seems to have everything i could take or leave about the norton without any of the charm. no doubt goldammer is an "engineering genius" and so should probably have better things to do than reinventing the manx. what he has done would be impressive if not for what he had done it to. i have to give it credit for being an improvement on the design as opposed to the triumph thruxtons and ford mustangs of recent reincarnation that dont add performance, only borrowing credibility from innovative ideas of the past, but I cant help starving for innovations of the present.
