    Thanks for looking at the CX500 Turbo’s. Even with high miles they were a good deal. Not many left because people couldn’t handle the power. If you weren’t paying attention, once the turbo spooled up it could throw you off the seat. I should have sent you a bag of cash too.

      They were a little ahead of their time for sure. The electronics on them blow me away considering the year they were sold. How they got fuel injection to work so well on this boosted twin is amazing. I've worked on them a lot. VERY rideable bike. 👌

    Gratitude for looking!
    The 65 Norton P11 was my most favorite motor of all I had ridden/raced up to then. I'll never forget when my Dad first took it for a ride. Upon return, his comment was, "We only dreamed of riding Motors like this in my day!" My Dad was a renown motor builder and Indian Dealer owner in the Pacific NW, so this was some weighty comment for me.
    Please send me that great P11 photo you posted.

    That 350LC looked really smart. (My RD250LC was white and red) surprised how low some of the prices are for these bikes.
    Thanks for the mention.
    Some absolutely gorgeous machines there
    Just a possible suggestion. If you put time stamps next to the bike names in the description, they come up in a Google search and many more would view the vid. Example 20:15 RD350LC

      Thanks for the tip, it is almost bed time now but I'll take a stab at it tomorrow. There are some bargains, I've previously talked to some European buyers and they buy enough to fill up those metal cargo containers and take them back to Europe.

      Eagle Eyes my friend. That scarf goes back to 1976 when two of friends and I came over from Germany to visit England. I liked the scarf and as it turns out that was all brought back. I left everything but the scarf on the airplane. My friends brought me back from the airport in a shopping cart.😄😄
