Key Details

About This Bike

Imported into New Zealand around thirteen years ago from the USA, this matching numbers 1973 Norton Commando 850 has just been through a full recommission after spending the last five years parked in a garage.

The bike has had a full refurbishment which included a full oil service, front brake overhaul, fork seals replaced, ignition oil switch to stop wet-sumping, new carbs and plenty more listed below. The engine is in very good condition with great compression and has a new Pazon Electronic Ignition. The gearbox is strong and goes through the gears very well.
