Twas thinking about all the oil spots left on that cul-de-sac. Seriously, those Nortons make beautiful music. Funnest motorcycle I ever road was my father's Norton 750 Commando with the Combat engine.

Thanks Bernie. Yes, they are all really cool about it. Honestly, we don't have many visitors and the neighborhood is usually really quiet. I think they're more curious than anything. I think they're wondering what I'm up to with all the cameras and friends coming over with their old motorcycles. But it's never been a problem. Cheers, Mike

That beautiful red Atlas caught my eye, reminded me of my first introduction to Norton. Back in '62 or '63, I was riding with my best friend on his Cushman Super Eagle on a side street in town when a guy on a Atlas came by, shifting at full throttle as he passed, at that time the most "wanton" display of raw power I had ever witnessed (it was another year before I saw my first drags). I got my first Norton, a '69 Commando 'S' in 1970 after getting out of the Navy.

Sunday morning quietly sitting in the garden with a cuppa, still not fully awake. Then I see the words ‘crashes’ and ‘Cul de sac’😲😲 and I thought NO someone’s not dropped their bike! Then the penny dropped🙄. I’m awake now and it was a fantastic video. Good idea to add the bike descriptions at the end. Marvellous.

Huge respect for all them guys for how they have all presented them they are great. Takes me back to my youth when these bikes were an everyday sight. I’ve just spent the last 2 days at a Classic Bike Race meeting and it’s been fabulous, but I’ve only seen about a dozen old British bikes in the bike park all day. To be honest there were a lot in some Classes on Track. Thank you very much Mike for sharing this video with us I have really enjoyed it.

Anyone know where he is now ? I see no headlights on !!! We are required to have ours on while riding in ny ! Its a good idea for safetys sake !!! Loved these bikes.

A cul-de-sac nightmare: After all the countless glorious and impressive departures, deep throaty exhausts sounding into the distance - to be the last one left...the one whose bike wouldn't start.....

Haha, at least no one else would see it 😀 that's my nightmare too, stranded at the club meeting with everyone gone.. but then it's also a pub to wait in 😀 best wishes Jim

What a great Norton-Gang! I prefare this yellow Paul Dunstall one. But really, what about your neighbours? Are the tolerant? Than I will visit you one fine day with my Mike-Hailwood-Replica with Conti-Mufflers ... Here in Germany and in Austria politics is discussing noise-reduction down to 95 dba. Some beautiful roads in the alps are actually closed for bikers on Harley and Ducati! Best wishes again from Allgäu/Germany, Ulli

I had a 1974 Norton 850 hayride or commando kind of made a chopper out of it running straight pipes took off air cleaners and run stack pipes. It was faster in the quarter mile then my 2006 Harley Davison softail deuce with a power commander cam high flow air cleaner etc. it would scream talking about The Norton. The harder you ran them the faster they would go and mine was fast so was the 650 BSA hornet

What township are you in? We need to petition a name change for your street. Just put Cul-de-Sac on the darn street sign! Of course, then somebody will want a sign at the edge of town proclaiming "Home of Cul-de-Sac street." And then.....Commando Way, Atlas Cir, Peashooter Lane, Lightning Alley, Bonneville Strip, LaRue Black Shadow...
