n excellent condition this 1974 850 Norton Commando that Mr. Greg Fauth had fixed up over the year that he had it.
It has a fresh rebuilt engine with less than 800 miles on it. The list of things that he had done to this bike is long. The changes were done one at the time and tested to be sure of the suitability of each. The gas tank was custom made by Ross Thomson from an Atlas steel tank. His work is excellent. The tank is lined with Por -15. The logos are painted on with clear Urethane over the top. You can't feel them. the green matches the gel cote on the rear tail piece. Chrome rims by Central Wheel, Cad plated spokes- 19" on the front, 18" on the back for wider tire selection. The nipples are nickel plated brass. New Stainless steel front fender and S.S. Stays are fitted. S.S. caliper pistons with new seals, and a new S.S, break line with Teflon inner from Rocky. B. Cycle. The Norton master cylinder has the RGM 13mm conversion done by them. The disc rotor was ground and drilled by DBR. The platinum pads are fitted, and stops like a modern bike. Lever action is 2 fingers on the clutch and the break. The front end is all freshened up, has the Fauth fork kit with six inches of travel (stock was 4 1/2) fluid stops at each end. Using progressive springs and leak proof seals, alloy quick fill fork cap bolts, S.S. front axil and nut. Has an oil filled, oil pressure gauge in a Fauth mount with a fly screen and the Norton logo by Steve Dale (BritGaskets) to keep the bugs of the powder coated gauge cups. Speedometer and tachometer gauges have 7500 mile on them since rebuilt by Nisonger. S.S. mirror stems from Norvil with the cast H.D. trncated over " tinted for night" mirrors. The horn and head light are operated by relays made for Mr. Fauth by Eastern Beaver Co. Unseen under the tank. The system uses rear motorcycle duty relays. These take the amperage strain off the handle bar switches and provide a direct fused link to the battery. The stock horn is laud and the head light is bright. There is a Fauth wire kit on the Mark Three Boyer coil plate to avoid breakage there. Black Dana dual output single coil. Has a brand new battery.

The transmission has the dual adjusters mounted facing forwards on the cradle for easy adjustments, This keeps the transmission straight for longer belt life. Motor is vented with "Krank vent" valve to the oil tank. The head is the RH-10 (32mm Intakes), that is been rebuilt by Mr. Leo Goff. The early Doug's Norton bags still sport the Colorado Norton Works tag. They were made for Fastbacks. The transmission has been overhauled with a new updated roller on the lay shaft.
