Nice! Powdercoat?
Yep. I had a slight ....
ahem..incident. Both my rims were badly damage. GrayGhost had them listed up here for sale and Seb pointed them out. I wasn't a big fan of the gold till I saw them in person. They have really grown on me tho. I love how they look on some more sportier bikes.
You kids! Old guys invented cool. 1974 John Player Special Lotus Formula 1, and Lotus factory paint jobs since then, and a million aftermarket paint jobs.

...huh. Why would someone put all that wonderful time into that bike and not bother to finish it? Gold wheels FTW.

Kenny Dreer and the Norton American company he created went their separate ways a couple of years ago. I don't believe any of the Dreer Nortons were delivered. The company lingered as a corporate zombie until it sold the Norton brand name back to a company in the UK in 2008 (see the old thread somewhere in this section, 'Norton Goes Home'). We've speculated on this forum whether the designs for the Dreer Norton were included in the sale - but I've heard no definitive news. One can only hope, but in this shattered economy can Norton be revived?
Those gold wheels are dead sexy mate! Wow! you read my mind on what looks good! Funny Alpha posted the pic of the 675...I drool every time I see that particular bike! Black & Gold FTW!!
