    Rode Nortons over here in Colorado back in the '70s and '80s, the perfect bike for enjoying the varied roads of the Rocky Mountains...Oh, the joy.

    Excellent Gino. That's a beautiful part of Perthshire and off the beaton track. Stunning and thanks for sharing.

    Great road over the hill, I remember when you had to get aff the bike to open and close the gates before the installation of the cattle grids happy days.... stunning bikes Mr & Mrs Rondelli .....I really like Mrs Rs Yamaha FZR

      Aye it used to be a bit of a pain but also made it feel a bit less like a main road.....if you can call it a main road. Aye the Yamaha was a great buy, low mileage so we will try to keep it for nice days and wear out the Nortons and Guzzis instead 🤣

    Beautiful bikes on great roads
    Loch Freuchie?
    I am always amazed by the amount of foreign vehicles on this road
    The hairpins are indeed a challenge at low speed
    South Loch Tay road Kenmore to Jack McLean’s Killin ( if you remember Jack the Killin TO)is much improved with large sections resurfaced

      Thanks Iain, of course I remember Jack, I spent a week in digs in Killin after he passed away to cover him while they decided what to do with the section, a week in an alcoholic haze mostly!
      Kenmore is now like a busy beach area now, sadly overrun by tourists!

    Great wee video Gino and Fiona. Thanks for posting. I remember back in the 80’s negotiating the hairpin only to find a car in the road. Driver and passenger both out, doors left open as they took photographs! Luckily I was only on my 120 Jota. Can you make your visor pop open with pressure? I can!

      Ha ha, the Jota, such a forgiving bike with a featherlight clutch, I still say my Jota was the only bike I had to go have a lie down after a ride on it!!!

    What windshield is the yellow commando using ? Thanks

      It's a puig, needs a bit of adjustment to get it on but its good, I think you have to move the tacho and speedo a little to get it to fit and some filing on the bracket to get it between the headlight and indicator stalk.
