500cc Norton Manx

Earlier, I mentioned that during the visit to the private collection (owned by Mr. Ramón Magrinyá - I forgot to name this very kind gentleman in my previous article, mea culpa) I was allowed to clamber aboard a 500cc Norton Manx. Here is the photographic evidence of the deed!

In the future, I would like to try to twist Mr. Magrinyá's arm and convince him to let me test-ride this magnificent motorcycle!
