The son of a late friend of mine (son being my age) owns a really nice blue 75/5. I may have a pic of it somewhere.

Never mind
My all time fav was my Norton 750 Commando. My neighbor years ago had retuned from his second tour in Vietnam and couldn't cope with cage drivers in the states. Sat in his garage for almost 20 years and the engine froze, tires rotted. He was moving and wanted to know if I would buy it. Of course! Took me the better part of a year to get it on the road, parts being a little hard to find. Sold it after a few years for 700. What a dumb shit I was!
No, no, that was not intended as a remark about your image. I just failed to look at the dates of one the posts and didn’t realize that it was over two years old and I had already responded to it.
OK. I did remove the extra floating part behind the front wheel and made an attempt to fix her right eye. It could use more work but sometimes the flaws reveal more about the subject to the viewer.

I started this one out as the 650 Ninja but I believe it is at a thousand cc's now.
BTW, the 650 Ninja will be my next bike. The seating and riding position is just right for my back. Curves it inward perfectly. I don't think the image above represents the actual seating position on the 650 as the handlebars would be a little higher on the actual bike.
The vintage bike show is coming up next month. I will make an effort to attend it this year.
