  1972 NORTON 750 COMMANDO

Proper NUMBERS MATCHING.

Bike shows 13,XXXX original miles but engine is far from stock.

Beautiful, reliable, tight, vintage British motorcycle! 

Paint is perfect.

Bike runs, rides and shifts EXCELLENT!!!!!!!!!

NO SMOKE, LEAKS or ISSUES WHATSOEVER.

Starts on 1 kick every time. 

FAST, FAST MACHINE!

Clear INDIANA title (to me) in hand. Bike is licensed and insured to me.

This is my personal motorcycle. I just spent the day on it and clocked 230 miles without 1 single issue. 

Bike always performs perfectly and dependable, I am passionate about it. 

This is more of a "Hot Rod" with riding/performance upgrades rather than a "Restoration".
 
A purist will spend far too much time picking it apart rather than riding and enjoying it. 

If you are looking for a 100% original bike with the original air in the tires...this isn't it.

However, if you want a FAST, reliable NORTON to ride daily and be able to keep up with modern bikes...this is your pony!


Come check it out in person...you won't be sorry!


Cheers

Shipping costs are the buyers responsibility but I will work out the details with your shipper to load the bike up. I recommend Uship, Keyboard Motorcycle Shippers and Haulbikes. 



Bike is sold "As Is" and "Where Is". No warranty expressed or implied obviously BUT if you are in the area you are welcome and encouraged to come and physically inspect it anytime you like. I'm not an expert on these things so PLEASE ask anything anytime. I'm happy to answer. 

Nothing to hide here.


Paying:

CASH IN HAND IS KING

BANK TO BANK WIRE 

CASHIERS' CHECKS 


See my **EXCELLENT** FEEDBACK to know who you are buying from prior to purchase.

PAYPAL IS NOTPREFERRED! I DO NOTLIKE PAYPAL AND I THINK THEIR FEES ARE OUTRAGEOUS! 

HOWEVER IF YOU WANT TO USE PAYPAL,YOU WILL HAVE TO BE LIABLE FOR THE EXTRA FEES. SORRY...BUT IT'S JUST RIDICULOUS WHAT THEY CHARGE FOR BASICALLY DOING NOTHING.

Bonneville from a parallel universe

Fri, 20 Sep 2013

This is the Triumph Speed Twin Concept, a bike commissioned by Triumph to show what the Bonneville might have evolved into, in a parallel universe. I love the concept. Designed by Roy Norton and Tom Kasher who were on a placement at a design studio, I get the impression the pair are into motorcycle and not just designers.
