I think they are all great,but in the early 70,s I saw a sportster and was hooked.And I still have my $2900 76 iron head I bought new. Shake,rattle and roll.

Hello Sayre! Just wanted to once again thank you for helping me fire the big Guzzi at Thompson. The classic era depended on people, not smartphones! Lol! See you in Canaan!

Fantastic to see that the battery cases of the current Bonneville Bobber and Speedmaster Triumphs have exactly the same design as the one on the blue T-bird.

I've got a BSA and a Triumph. I know what you mean about the popularity of Triumphs makes them less interesting. The popularity also has it's benefits though with parts availability and the ability to customize them so you can still have a unique bike.

Cool bikes. I love vintage Triumphs, but I haven't had a chance to own a Norton or BSA. I have a 1964 Trophy as my daily rider. It's a great bike. I like the single carb twins better than the dual carb bikes. Are you sure the black 1963 is a Trophy? The TR6 didn't come with a nacelle or those forks (as far as I know.) If it says TR6 on the title it seems like someone replaced the front end.. The gas tank looks like the thunderbird tank as well.

We're not sure about that black bike. It's a bit of a rough one and could be a bitsa!

Norton guys are not snobs. Norton is a pretty special brand even have race history. I think they try harder to restore there bikes and are more careful care takers. Good video and if J. Healey says something its always true.

Well, as Norton guy I definitely think that my decision to own a Norton makes me a better person than those who choose lesser brands...:) In seriousness Norton is a company with a truly storied and accomplished history. Nothing wrong with feeling good about owning one.

The ‘67 didn’t come with a twin leading shoe front brake.. the first year for that was ‘68.. however, it had the beefier flanged hub would could accept the later twin leading shoe brake plate.. The ‘63 models are cool because they are a bit of a hybrid of pre-unit and unit parts..the front forks are late duplex frame versions,with internal springs and the earlier style oil seal holders.. notice how the foot pegs are mounted to the frame, as opposed to the rear engine mounting plates on the ‘67? One year only!! If the ‘63 serial number is prefixed by 6T it is a unit Thunderbird 650 model..
