I stumbled across this one for sale in Antigo,Wisc. All the usual disclaimers, don't know the owner, the bike, etc.

Looks like a beauty, might need the big t/s, police sidestand, but it is a pretty bike. Looks like a lot has been done to it already... hope this hasn't been posted already, if so, Admins, please delete this.

Happy looking...spotted it through "Bikeurious" who included it in today's email.

Great looking bike and the link mentioned a FB page devoted to it and building Loop bikes so joined that.

Looks like it's worth the price for the work/upgrades done on it. Someone serious might be able to get it for a lower price.

Looks like the carbs have been updated as they have shielded ticklers, here is what the originals looked like.

If anyone is looking to replace theirs, purchase a set for a Norton Combat 750, they are 32MM and the stock jetting is bang on! DonG
