Norton Commando description

First off, if you have zero feedback, a low number of feedback, or no recent activity on ebay you must contact me prior to bidding. Failure to do so will result in your bid being cancelled. I am sorry to require this, but there are a lot of fake bidders and time wasters out there. It takes time and money to list an item and I want all bidders to be legitimate. Payment is due within 7 days of the auctions end, no exceptions. No Paypal for full purchase. Bike must be picked up within 3 weeks of auctions end or storage fees will apply.

For sale is a fully restored, numbers matching 1972 Norton Commando 750. This bike underwent a very thorough 5 year restoration by one of the nation's top Norton restorers, CMI of Nashville TN. No expenses were spared. Only NOS Norton parts were used. The last picture shows the bill for the restoration totaling over $10,000.00, not including the price of the bike itself. Absolutely nothing went untouched on this bike from frame, to engine, to wiring, to chrome and paint. The main things that aren't original on the bike are the SS tank (very rare), bar end mirrors, single Mikuni carb, and electronic ignition. The combination of the single modern Mikuni carb and the Boyer electronic ignition makes this bike very reliable. I would be comfortable riding this bike anywhere. It starts very easy and on the first kick as shown in the video. Everything on this bike works, including all switches and lights/signals. This bike is the total package. You could use it to ride or show. It's only a new set of header pipes away from being museum quality (because of some blueing), and it rides better than any other Norton you will find out there. This is your chance to buy one of the nicest Nortons out there. THIS IS A NO RESERVE AUCTION. THE LAST BIDDER WILL WIN! 

I have tried to take plenty of pictures to show all aspects of the bike. I don't want there to be any surprises. Although it's been restored, it's a 42 year old British bike, so don't expect a new one when it arrives. Please ask any and all questions before bidding. The bike does have a clear TN title. The bike is being sold as is, where is with no warranty. 

Shipping is the buyers responsibility, but I will work with the shipper of your choice in any way possible. Payment due by bank wire, cash in person, or cashiers check. Full payment is due within 7 days and a $500 non refundable deposit is due via PayPal within 24 hours of auctions end. Please contact me within 24 hours of auction close to make arrangements for payment. All funds must clear my bank prior to bike or title being released. The bike must be picked up within 3 weeks of auctions end or a storage fee will apply. Please have an idea of the shipping cost and who you're going to use before you bid if you plan on having the bike shipped.

Kevin Schwantz To Race Goodwood Aboard Norton Featherbed

Wed, 23 Jul 2014

If you didn’t already notice, Kevin Schwantz has a full plate this year. At 50 years young, the 1993 500cc World Champion will be competing at the prestigious Suzuka 8-Hours in a few weeks, and he’s followed that up with the announcement he will be making his Goodwood Revival debut during the September 12-14 event on an iconic Manx Norton ‘Featherbed’. Schwantz, last raced on UK soil during the 1994 British 500cc Grand Prix at Donington Park, but will tackle the daunting Goodwood Motor Circuit this year in the Barry Sheene Memorial Trophy, which will be run for bikes of 1951-54 period.

I'm on a Goodwood Revival comedown

Tue, 22 Sep 2009

I'm on a massive comedown after a great weekend at Goodwood Revival. The Revival relives the glory days of the 50s and 60s and that's not just marketing hype, almost everyone is dressed in perios clothing, the cars are all from 1948 to 1966 and the effort that goes into setting Goodwood up is incredible, even the burger vans are retro Citroens, the staff are dressed in period clothing and about the only thing not retro was the price of a bacon sarnie; £6.50, ouch! I only planned to go down on Friday, but I had such a good time I headed back on Sunday too.

The first Norton to roll off the assembly line in 2021 will be Commando

Wed, 23 Dec 2020

The British company plans to produce 40 motorcycles of this model, most of which have already been prepaid. And only after the end of the story with Commando, the company will move on to the assembly of the V4 model, and then the two long-awaited Atlases. According to the company's management, the new model, Norton Atlas, currently still requires a number of final fine-tuning works before the start of mass production.
