Commando

Hi,

I have recently bought a new (2024) Commando 961 SP. I would like to be able to put it onto paddock stands so that a) I don't leave the bike resting on it's tyres when it's not in use, b) clean and oil the chain.

Is it normal for the gearbox magnet to look like a shaving brush?  This is after 1000 miles. The oil looks as clean as the day it went in.

Hi, Just purchased Norton Commando Mk3, which was deliver this week, and looks great (1976, Cherry red, roadster).

I've just fitted LED bulbs in the headlight, pilot light and instrument lights on my Mk3 to reduce load as I like to ride with the headlight on.

All work OK and I am very pleased with them except for a strange consequence.

Hello Folks.

I'm looking to purchase a 850 MK3 and have seen one advertised which I like, however, it has stainless steel fixings.

Having had the barrels of my 850 mk2A rebored I've spent the weekend trying to get her back together again.  The engine is still in the frame and I've been working on my own so it has been a bit of a faff.

Hello 

I am looking to add panniers to my 961, any ideas? 

Hi,
just replacing kickstart pawl. Removed the mainshaft nut, and it appears to have remains of a seal attached it.
Where is this from? I have looked at Andover Norton gearbox diagram, and can't see it.
Any suggestions?
