"When function defines form, the results are often spectacular." -BikeExif
Once you’ve had a moment to pick your mouth up from the floor, consider the larger idea at work here.
What you see before you is a motorcycle. Sure this particular example was perfectly built, redefines the word ‘one off,’ and performs to the extent of the heavens, but it’s still just a bicycle with a motor, right?
Wrong.
This Norton 750 is different than the rest, and by the rest, I mean anything else that happens to exist currently or in the past. It is a bike that has been given a life, and a responsibility, to one specific person. I wont name the owner of the Norton, but I do applaud him.
Whoever he is, or whatever he does, doesn’t matter. What matters is that he is somebody who wanted more than what was readily available, and he took the time to shape his vision into something only he could understand.
I think this motorcycle is perfect, and I cant, or wont, imagine a world where people lose sight of what really counts. You dont have to love this Norton to understand the message it illustrates. You just have to go with your gut, ask yourself what you want, and never settle for less.
The owners name is Dan Rose.
