Wow. That's amazing to find all those different and rare motorcycles together and in such good condition.

Imagine the difference in build quality between then and now.
Sitting for fifty years and they start right up. A little oil in the right places and they would ride around all day.

After sitting for a few weeks, my kids 1998 Suzuki JR50 won't stay running long enough for him to get it dirty.

Default Norm must be proud

Sorry to hear that "old Norm" passed away. A simple man that appreciated the finer things in life for their simplisity.
The value of those five motorcycles alone astounds me, but just think of the value of his entire collection.

It just shows that you can't take it with you.

Pretty cool though.

These motorcycles (and cars) are simply amazing. These videos also feature one of my favorite motorcycle people, Dale Walkster of "Wheels through Time" fame. Thank you Mark444 for posting this link.
