Norton Commando description
|
1968 NORTON Commando 750cc Fastback Excellent condition. Runs & rides as good as it looks. This is the first iteration of the Commando Fastback with the round tank badges. In
1970 I started riding Nortons in the Ozark Mountains, and I have been
riding one of various models ever since. My present Norton I acquired
from the Norton Owners Club in Canada and imported it. I have a clear
Arkansas title & registration.Since I've had the bike, new Amal carbs have been fitted along with new Avons, speedo cable, and fresh dark green paint (the bike came from Canada in a flawless red color, but I'm not fond of riding anything painted red). The only issue is that the 4:1 ratio of the tachometer is matched to a tachometer drive of 2:1 ratio, which results in the instrument reading twice the number of rpms. To compensate, I have reduced the price from $10,500. All else on the machine is functional and in order as it should be. This machine I had set up for the duration, but at this point in life I find that the Commando is too long, too high, and too heavy for me. If anyone has a 1960-1963 standard Norton 600cc Dominator model 99 of like condition, I would be happy to swap even. You are welcome to come by for a test ride. Any
form of payment is acceptable or upon pick-up here in Hot Springs
National Park. Shipping is also possible per buyer's preferences and expense. Merry Christmas! |

The current record stands at 360.913mph over a kilometre.
Happy 50th Hizzy
Wed, 11 Jan 2012On the 11th January 1962, Steve Hislop was born in Hawick, Scotland. Today would have been his 50th birthday, but he was tragically killed in a helicopter accident in 2003. Hizzy was a genius on a motorbike and when he was happy with everything around him, he was amongst the best in the world.
