A member of the triples forum went to the Barber Museum and made some really good videos and posted them to YouTube. There is a Hercules at the 1:30 point of the video. Very interesting viewing. Excellent music too.

Barber is a wonderful place and well worth the visit.
I have been at least 10 times... Really a must see!
While all of the bikes are spectacular, many (including the Hercules) are not in the least bit correct. While this does not matter at all to me (I know some folks it does), every time I have been there are folks that "assume" all the bikes are as produced.
I have often seen people making furious notes about a particular bike, when I ask them why, they say they are restoring one and thought this would be a good place to get info...
It is a wonderful place... Just be careful if you are making a trip looking to get guidence on your particular machine.
Best,
Jess
P.S. They don't have an Re5 on the floor. I understand they have several, just not one on display.

Yes a great place to go and see bikes, I also agree they are not all correct. Even subtle things like on the 1975 Goldwing. Small shield rear right of motor is chromed and should be painted. The Hercules isn't even close. I would go back in a second, place is great.
