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

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.

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.

Prince William The Duke Of Ducs And Other Motorcycles

Mon, 02 Dec 2013

The Duke of Cambridge, Prince William, visited Britain’s largest motorcycle show, Motorcycle Live, at the National Exhibition Center in Birmingham. The visit saw the Duke astride numerous motorcycle models including UK icons Norton and Triumph as well as a Ducati 1199 Superleggera (one of the few men able to afford the $70,000 rarity). During his visit Prince William enjoyed a display of off-road riding – one of nine opportunities for visitors to ride at Motorcycle Live, eight of which are inside the halls of the NEC. He also met Dean Linehan, exhibitions director of MCI Exhibitions, the company that organizes the annual motorcycle exhibition.

The first Norton to roll off the assembly line in 2021 will be Commando

Wed, 23 Dec 2020

The British company plans to produce 40 motorcycles of this model, most of which have already been prepaid. And only after the end of the story with Commando, the company will move on to the assembly of the V4 model, and then the two long-awaited Atlases. According to the company's management, the new model, Norton Atlas, currently still requires a number of final fine-tuning works before the start of mass production.
