Norton Commando description

Ok   i bought this from the second owner.  He had re wired the bike and put in an electronic ignition with new coils..( It had sat for a while in a climate controlled garage..)   When I got it I took it to Baxter Cycle and had them put 2 new Amal carbs on it.  They also went over it and tidied up anything that needed doing...Since then, I have put about 30 miles on it...I now have a 75 850 and can't keep both...There is a small dent in the right muffler from the kickstart rubbing on it and the previous owner put some tap on a small crack on the rear fender...Otherwise ,it starts on one kick..Snarls like a Norton should and the electrics work...Looks to be original headlight and tires....I am by no means an expert and since I did not buy it new I can't verify it is all original but it sure does look like it to me...I have a copy of the previous owners title that states the mileage is accurate and everything else looks original and great..If you have less than 10 feedbacks contact me before bidding or I will cancel your bid...Thanks!!

The Duke of Cambridge, Prince William, visited Britain’s largest motorcycle show, Motorcycle Live, at the National Exhibition Center in Birmingham. The visit saw the Duke astride numerous motorcycle models including UK icons Norton and Triumph as well as a Ducati 1199 Superleggera (one of the few men able to afford the $70,000 rarity). During his visit Prince William enjoyed a display of off-road riding – one of nine opportunities for visitors to ride at Motorcycle Live, eight of which are inside the halls of the NEC. He also met Dean Linehan, exhibitions director of MCI Exhibitions, the company that organizes the annual motorcycle exhibition.

The current record stands at 360.913mph over a kilometre.
