    The tank on that Hi-Rider looks suspiciously like the Matchless/Norton N15/G15 tank, without the mounts protruding down in the front.

      I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.

        Well, soon I hope. I sold the Norton today. Took $1K deposit and the guy is coming out from Texas to pick it up in a week. Got the price I was asking.

          Excellent! Your video of half way kicking the beast, and watching it come to life was a master stroke!

          Did you buy it from the Widow, or selling it for her? Either way, great contribution to civilization!

            Thanks Ed - I am selling it for her. It's going to cover the funeral expenses, and a bit more.

                That's a very decent thing.
                The deceased would doubtless be relieved to know that.
