Description

During the Norton Commando's ten years of production, the Commando was popular all over the world. In the United Kingdom it won the Motor Cycle News "Machine of the Year" award for five successive years from 1968 to 1972. Around 60,000 Commandos were built in total during its production. The Norton Commando, also known for being extremely fast, was the perfect donor to build fast and stylish motorcycles for either racing or road pleasure. Paul Dunstall, master craftsman that was heavily involved in Motorcycle racing found himself early on in his career drawn to this English manufacture. Dunstall went on to become its own manufacture company to secure eligibility on the racing circuit. This example is a prime example of a high quality built Cafe Racer using the finest components on the market, but still holding true pedigree to what a "Cafe Racer" is. Lightweight, striped down, powerful, and English stylistic ques. Norton Cafe Racers rarely hit the market and built to this quality is even rarer. This is the one you've been looking for!
