About 40 years ago my brother built a Norvin. To get some of the bits and generally out of interest he became a member of the Vincent Owners' Club. When it was finished he took it along to a meeting. All they did was to pick holes in it telling him it was vandalism to put that engine in that frame. The strange thing was that he was the only one to have turned up on a bike, they were all in cars. He never went again.
