No Reserve: 1973 Norton 850 Commando

A vintage motorcycle on the market is a 1973 Norton 850 Commando, hailing from the United States, specifically Oregon. This classic bike, with no reserve for auction, is a timeless representation of British engineering and design, boasting a distinct steel tube frame hosting an air-cooled, parallel twin cylinder engine that produces around 64 horsepower. The Commando, known for its unique 'featherbed' frame, was a revolutionary design by the time of its manufacture, offering improved handling compared to earlier Nortons due to its double-loop frame geometry. This particular example is in unrestricted configuration ('Roadster'), showcasing classic features like an AMAL carburetor and a British Racing Green paint scheme, completing with traditional Norton badges and a solo seat setup with a matching front fender.
