Norton Featherbed
Something you don't see very often. A Norton Featherbed frame with an actual Norton engine in it!!
Good lord. This is just sooooo wrong....
Sorry. I love bikes and all that but this is too much. You're just going to have to go to Jalopnik to read "the rest of the story" on this one.

The Most Grooooovy Tri.... errr correction... NORTON in Town!
Corrected by an alert reader in the comments. Thanks!This was in the parking lot of a local shop that specializes in old british bikes. It's not often you see a period correct all original "flower power" paint scheme so well preserved on an old ride like this. Not exactly my style but this must have been just the ticket back in the day...

UPDATE: Mike wrote the following over on the Yamaha Enduro message board about the build. Hope you guys don't mind me adding it here. He's responding to Ctune1 on that board:Hi Mark-The inspiration for this bike came from seeing the Ducati Hypermotard at the Cycleworld show. Sabrina thought it was cool and suggested we build a “RetroRetard” of some sort. She didn’t have a bike or know how to
