there's a guy local to me, got a Norton Commando motor in a modern Chassis, upside-downies etc.
Takes it to the local bike show & manages to upset absolutely everyone. the rusty / oily brit brigade don't like it, as it has jap bits on it, & the jap lovers just don't get it.
Looks great to me & sounds fabulous. Give it a go. Or come to your senses & use an XS650 motor. Remember the first Yellow & Black Kenny Roberts bikes were flat-trackers.

I did think about a xs650, but if your going to do it you must as well use the real thing ie some old pile of crap trumpet,
its nice to see that other fools have had the same idea, all the more if it winds up purists
