Re: Identify this tv bike...
Thanks, I'll keep trying for a better look at it.
I was just wondering. Funny how now that I am riding again my eye is drawn to bikes like never before. Took my Mom to the doctor and shopping today and there was a little Suzuki parked outside the store and I just had to go check it out. Guess once a biker, always a biker...

Record the commercial, then play it back, frame-by-frame and you should be able to see a logo somewhere on the bike.

I like the bike but can't identify it.

The 550 was a sale from a friend of mine traded in for a New shadow and it was in MINT condition,,, the 750 has the more aggressive sound I think I hear when it rides off in the commercial... Other wise to me Both are Identical bike... Nice... signed....BUBBIE

Re: Identify this tv bike...
I'd say the bike is a Norton.
