A detailed history of the Norton Commando: its antecedents, development, and year-by-year production changes, including the turbulent story of the company that built it, bringing the story right up to the present day.
This book also includes expert advice on owning and maintaining one of these iconic bikes and information on clubs, websites, and spares.
Featuring great color photos, including original advertising material, and comprehensive appendices of facts, figures, contacts, technical specifications, engine/frame numbers, and road test performance figures, this is the definitive book of a bike that truly deserves the term ‘classic.’
Customer Reviews
Since the book was published in 2017 and not too bad; I think it could be updated for 2024. A brief mention of James Lansdowne Norton (the founder) would be nice in the intro. Also touching on Norton’s successful racing singles and logical development of smaller twins ending with the Atlas ; Which was a precursor to the 750 Commando. I’d also end the book with a short review of the Norton company in 2024 (961 Commando)
