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 Rotary Racebike Is Back With The Crighton Racing CR700P – Video
Fri, 11 Oct 2013Here are the facts: 200 hp, 100 ft.-lbs, and 700cc. If you’re guessing what engine is capable of producing numbers like this, you’re probably looking in the wrong direction. No, this isn’t coming from a piston engine, but a rotary.
Halloween for Motorcyclists: I Bought a Vampire Motorcycle [Video]
Fri, 21 Oct 2011Some motorcycles bite, particularly those with a kick starter. Kick starter levers sometimes “kick back” as any past or current owner of a bike with a kicker will attest. But what would you do if you discovered your bike really wanted to get you?
Bonhams Auctions 1966 Norton Manx For $100K
Tue, 22 Oct 2013The top selling model of Bonhams annual sale of collectors’ motorcycles, a 1966 Norton 350cc Manx prepared by legendary tuner Francis Beart and raced by Joe Dunphy and Keith Heckles, fetched a whopping $100,481 last Sunday. The auction price more than doubled the top selling estimate and set a new world record for a Manx sold at auction. Eighty percent of the 436 lots offered sold at the auction totaling $2,168,314 Hot on its heels came the technological marvel from an earlier era that produced the sale’s best result when the 250cc Moto Morini Grand Prix racer from the 1960s fetched $145,081. The Molnar Norton Manx, prepared and entered by Fred Walmsley for the late World Champion Barry Sheene, sold for $89,490.
