My 1974 Norton 850 Commando


My 1974 Norton Commando 850 Roadster, all dressed up and ready to party. I am the origional owner, having purchased her new from Marsh Motorcycles in Warehouse Point, Connecticut in May of 1975.


The magnificent Commando engine. 823cc, 60 hp.


Paint by Yours Truly.. Candy Red R-M Carizzma urethane. A bit of chrome, some Stainless, and a lot of Aluminum polish.


Those nasty blued pipes will be replaced next season. Although they do add a bit of character...


Still looks sweet after 30 years. No Lady likes to show her true age, and Commando's age rather gracefully.
