Glad to see they’re listening to people. Did you get to do any towing with it? Curious what that new powertrain will do.

Read the book last year after seeing the series so many years ago. Excellent insight into the trip.

I got to sit in an INEOS Grenadier recently and it does have the courtesy horn on the steering wheel.

In a previous role, I worked for a company who supplied military and commercial aviation supplies. We had products that were identified as “rad-hardened” to meet this exact kind of platform.

Hence the Isolastics on the Norton Commandos. Nowhere near perfect, but a huge improvement from those other teeth-rattling twins

What are the maintenance intervals? How’s the turning at low speed? In the stock form, what would you feel is the ideal rider size (ergonomically)?

It’s an ancient 757. Should be moth-balled anyway.

I have the same year Bonneville. It’s been a solid ride for thousands of miles. Still carb’d and the capable 800cc engine. Well worth $2k.

Wedding doughnuts from KK are a thing in the US. You just have to order ahead. Special requests can usually be accommodated.

I have a close source in the company. They have global shops. From Dubai to Jamaica. From Philippines to France. Truly a global company.

Any info on the towing capacity? They began neutering this thing around 2016 so I’m curious what they can squeeze out of that I4.

Didn’t see this article sooner. Submitted for approval, the Norton Commando in “Yellow Peril”.

I love this. More bikes in this range please. Bikes like this are a blast to ride on, without adding additional risk of higher HPs.

That’s the best looking Buick I’ve seen since the Regal TourX, which isn’t really a Buick anyway. It’s not great styling, but infinitely better than what they’ve been doing.

So the question is, how long will the ADV wave last? It seems to be moving at a faster trajectory than other style crazes. Wil it burn out as fast and leave us with a glut of them on the market?

That JPN would be a deal as long as there is actual documentation. Get the engine code and check with the original listings from Norton. It will tell you whether it left the factory as a JPN or not. There are TONS of replicas out there. It does look the part but I wouldn’t drop that much on a bike in that state…

Core memories right there. I was about 23 when I got mine. Spent many wonderful hours in the garage with my dad tearing it down to fix problems from sitting too long.
