about 10 years ago i built a triton that was almost that bikes twin as far as polish goes it had the belt drive primary just like this one norton road handler forks and norton atlas frame it was quite the looker the only thing was you almost needed to take a qualified polisher with every time you rode it it made me nervous just pushing it around the shop. don't want that again. but it was a pretty cool ride thou and didn't weigh nothing about 340 lbs so it romped pretty good.
