ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS 1974 MKII NORTON 850 COMMANDO ROADSTER NO RESERVE !!!!! I'VE "SOLD" THIS BIKE AND MY MGA ALREADY ONCE HERE ON EBAY BUT FOR SOME REASON ATTRACT DICKHEADS WHO BID AND THEN TELL ME THEY "DIDN'T MEAN TO PRESS THE BUTTON" OR "DON'T HAVE THE MONEY AT THE MOMENT". PLEASE, DO NOT BID UNLESS YOU HAVE FUNDS AND INTEND TO COMPLETE THE TRANSACTION....YOU ARE BIDDING ON MY NORTON MKII 850 NORTON COMMANDO ROADSTER. I'VE HAD KNEE SURGERY AND WON'T BE KICK STARTING ANYTHING FOR AWHILE :(. ALSO I'VE TAKEN THE RESERVE OFF BUT PLEASE, PLEASE DO NOT BID UNLESS YOU INTEND TO COMPLETE THE SALE. YOU WILL NOT FIND NICER BIKE FOR THE OPENING BID PRICE !!ARGUABLY THE BEST OF THE COMMANDO LINE, THE MKII IS THE LAST 850 MODEL PRODUCED BEFORE THE HALF A**ED ATTEMPT TO MAKE LEFT FOOT SHIFT, ELECTRIC START (ELECTRIC ASSIST£?) BIKE IN 1975. DON'T LIKE MKIII MODELS :). ANYWAY SINCE COMPREHENSIVE RESTORATION THIS BIKE HAS COVERED APPROXIMATELY 120 MILES. AS STATED IN MY OTHER AUCTIONS HAVE 30+ BIKES. KIND OF GOOD PROBLEM TO HAVE BUT YOU END UP SPENDING FORTUNE ON NEW BATTERIES AND FUEL SYSTEM CLEANING !! THIS BIKE IS FRAME UP RESTORATION THAT INCLUDED REBUILT EVERYTHING AND POWDER COATED FRAME AND ALL BLACK PARTS, BUCHANANS STAINLESS SPOKES, AND GORGEOUS REDO OF THE ORIGINAL ROYAL BLUE COLOR. FRAME, ENGINE AND GEARBOX NUMBERS MATCH AND THE TITLE IS FREE AND CLEAR. THE BAD (OF WHICH THERE IS VERY LITTLE) THERE IS THE TINIEST OF OIL LEAKS BACK BY THE OIL TANK SOMEWHERE. TWO DROPS OVER THE COURSE OF MONTH. THINK IT MAY BE THE OIL TANK BANJO WASHERS. ALSO FROM REMOVING AND REFITTING THE FUEL TANK THERE IS THE COMMON PAINT CHIP RIGHT BY THE STEERING HEAD. LASTLY THE HEADLIGHT EARS SHOW SLIGHT TARNISHING OF THE CHROME BUT YOU HAVE TO LOOK CLOSELY. BIKE IS FIRST OR SECOND KICK STARTER EVERY TIME. HAVE ALL THE RECEIPTS FROM THE RESTORATION. I'VE NEVER ADDED THEM UP FOR FEAR OF SHOCK BUT WAY, WAY OVER 10K WHICH DIDN'T INCLUDE THE COST OF THE BIKE !! I'LL MISS IT BUT IT'S TIME TO LET GO AND FOR SOMEONE ELSE TO ENJOY IT. ALSO HAVE PAIR OF STOCK MUFFLERS, 06-1978 IF YOU WOULD PREFER THEM INSTEAD OF THE DUNSTALL ITEMS. CHECK MY OTHER AUCTIONS FOR PARTS. **** IMPORTANT, WILL BE OUT OF THE COUNTRY FOR ALL BUT ONE DAY OF THE AUCTION. WILL HAVE VERY INTERMITTENT INTERNET ACCESS.
