Re:

Nice collection, where they from someone in your family? The Dragon Rally badges are quite collectable, probably £10-£20 each, if you have a cloth Dragon rally badge, they are worth a small fortune!

I need to do some better pics of it

That would tick all the right box's for me if i could have one but no licence or money and a great job of building it by the way mate as that's just pure class and has got me drooling ..

Re:

How old / classic / retro do you want to go.

1933 Norton ES2 500cc single

My dad still has it along with 5 other vintage Nortons all in various states of restoration. Latest project is an ex-War Department Norton 16H

Nortons are really cool and i'd love to see pics of them and their condition they are in now ..

Re:

I don't own a motorcycle myself (except for a watercooled minimoto racer - doesn't count!!) but still love the motorbikes. Recently visited a new motoring museum north of Sydney which has a fabulous collection of cars and a few nice bikes. Just want to post some of the bikes on display which some of the readers may hold some interest. The collection has over 200 cars plus bikes and the most Ferrari and Lambo exotica under one roof this side of the world.
