COTT: A friend sent me the link for the Gentlemen’s Express article that appeared in Cycle Magazine…that was my motorcycle! I was a member of the magazine’s staff from ’73 to ’89. What a nice surprise to read that it’s low-key/high performance style is still appreciated. Wish I had that bike now.

Big fan of this post. Love the low tracker bars and rear sets. Looks like what ben has done with his guzzi. And this is definitely what I would do if I ever bought another vintage honda especially a 500t.

Also, Ed you forgot a page. Specifically, the page about the caliper. What did they do with it and why?

That’s an awesome article. I wish it had a dynomometer graph to show the HP/TQ over stock and it’s delivery. I love subtle builds like that and the idea of the “Gentleman’s Express” is pretty cool. I dig function over form – something I’m trying to work out with the Sportsters.
