Norton Commando description

This is a beautiful Norton bike!  I purchased it from the original owner.  The bike sat in his shop for 8 years.  I cleaned the carbs, points, adj. valves and it fired on third kick.]

The bike was blue when I got it, (not my favorite color) so I had it professionally painted with decal's clear coated...real nice!  The bike is real solid, all numbers match.

I believe it is stock, the original owner said the top end has only 1,000 miles since overhaul and I believe him.  Real strong compression..has the combat cam. 2 into one pipe (tuned), all paper work good.  Title in hand, extra parts go with the bike (factory tool kit, tire pump, spare real wheel, stock air cleaner, owners manual, repair manual.  $500.00 depossit at end of auction - bike does not leave my property until paid in full.  I will not ship or crate, will help load at my end.  Location is in Anderson, Ca.  any questions, call Wayne, 530-243-6590.  Thanks!!

Tue, 09 Mar 2010

SEE THE MACHINE that could propel Britain to a new motorcycle land speed world record at The Race Retro 2010 show, held at Stoneleigh Park, Coventry from 12th to 14th March. Almost a year has passed since Visordown broke the news of the planned UK assault on the land speed record - this coming August the Angelic Bulldog team travels to Bonneville, where it is hoping to smash the 400mph barrier and bring the motorcycle Land Speed Record back to the UK for the first time since 1937. The current record stands at 360.913mph over a kilometre.
