Ha ha, yes Jim, at one point in history BSA was the biggest motorcycle manufacturer in the world, which probably necessitated the invention of another couple of products, degreaser, concrete cleaner and pressure washers….. ;D
I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"

I will be sure to not let my wife see that information. I don't think that I would like to be sprayed with decreased and pressure washed...............after all I too am very old! 🙈🙉🙊

Anthony would NOT approve!

Wonder how fast he has to be going before those wings start making it really unsafe? Wonder what riding past a Semi on 2 lane road with you both doing 60-65mph would be like? Would you end up in the ditch or would it just push you 6 feet away (or more) from the truck's lane?

Norton chopper seen at the INOA Rally.  The fuel and oil tanks are in the passenger seat and seat back.  The  fake fuel tank is a ram air box.

The seat/thing doubles as a toilet;the bike might run on methane gas fumes  ::)

I just did a screenshot of this list from off the forum that was posted today;one of these choices may fit..

I like this Norton chopper and think it's worth saving;the bike may need the seat removed for a 100% cosmetic improvement.

To think that once, back in the day, that was a beautiful Norton chopper before someone thought that a a fake tank/air scoop and a sofa sized seat to hide the fuel and oil tanks was somehow a good idea. I often read people say, "It's my bike and I can do what I like with it", but that is one argument for mandatory motorcycle seizure, as far as I'm concerned.

They do it with people who ill treat their children, so why not those who ill treat their motorcycles? ;D

Yes, motorcycle abuse is real.

The picture from the rear looks like the contraption isn't square or plumb, it looks twisted. The left side of the "roll bar" looks higher than the right side. :o
