Of all God's creatures there is only one that cannot be made the slave of the lash. That one is the cat. If man could be crossed with the cat it would improve man, but it would deteriorate the cat.

At the Davenport Swap Meet last Labor Day Weekend there was Harton, too.  I walked by, did the double take and I thought "A Harley cafe racer??".  I stopped and started looking at it and was admiring the triple clamps when the owner/builder came over.  I looked at the rearsets and looked at him and a Norton frame jumped into my head.  His was a sweet scoot, and it was fun talking about his build.
Thanks for posting.  Brought back a good memory!
