• Late model electric start Commando 850
• Period JPS body-kit with CMA cast wheels
• Supplied with a good history file and a V5C

The Commando was first seen in 1967 at the Earls Court Show and the first production bikes were available in March 1968 initially with 750cc displacement, in 1973 it became an 850cc. During its ten years of production the Commando was popular all over the world, in the United Kingdom winning the Motor Cycle News "Machine of the Year" award for five successive years from 1968-1972, with around 60,000 Commandos being made in total. In 1974 a limited edition JPS model was launched sporting race style cosmetics celebrating Peter Williams's distinctive John Player sponsored TT winning bike.

This late model electric start, front and rear disc brake Commando is fitted with what looks to be a period JPS replica body kit, still with its vinyl side pockets in place, and CMA cast wheels together with a more modern Mikuni carb. Only about 200 JPS models were produced by the factory in 1974 with 75% of them going to the USA so original ones now command very high prices. This period replica has been stood for a couple of years so will need recommissioning and comes supplied with a good history file of receipts, old tax discs, MOTs, parts list and an owner's manual, as well as a current V5C.
