The Norton Commando is a British Norton-Villiers motorcycle with an OHV pre-unit parallel-twin engine, produced from 1967 until 1977. Initially with 750cc (745cc), in 1973 it became 850cc (828cc). The larger 850 engine was introduced initially as an alternative to the 750, but as the sole option from late 1973. All 850 models were fitted with a front disc brake. During its ten years of production, the Commando was popular all over the world. In the UK it won the Motor Cycle News "Machine of the Year" award for five successive years from 1968-1972. Around 60,000 Commandos were made in total.
This Norton Commando 850 has resided with the current vendor for the last ten years. During that time he has used it regularly on many local events. During ownership, the machine has been converted to a modern disc brake but comes complete with its original one, should it be required to put the machine back to stock. Additionally, the vendor has converted it to electronic ignition and it starts with ease. Running very well at the time of our visit, it is offered with a current V5C and some old MOT certificates and the original disc and caliper.
