Below is a selection of Nortons, some authentic
and some specials, that have caught my eye and kept me focused
when I am sanding at 1am, wishing I bought something, anything that
was complete and running. Alas, that would defeat the purpose;
this bike is about process as much if not more so, then result.
Tj's '70 Fastback Commando- restored from rot and neglect in California.
Colorado Norton Works Commando Interstate rebuild. Custom fender & brakes.
'70 Fastback Commando, with export (goofy looking) handlebars.
Scale Model. A good reference point.
A French special updated with goodies (look closely).
Norton
America's 880 incarnation
Form & function: Elegance.
I love the silver frame / chrome
tank of the Dominator and am using this as inspiration for my Fastback.
In my opinion, bikes got
ugly in the 70's - not much better these days either.
