Saw this in Warren PA today

Didn't get a chance to talk to the guy, but it looked very nice.

A Norton Commando with custom wheels and breaks, very cool.
It's a right side shifter, so it's before 1975 and has disc breaks front and rear, so it might be a 74. In 74 they were 850cc.
Actually it looks like he's done a bunch of custom stuff to it.
Neat pics Marty, thanx for sharing.

I thought I recognized the exhause, but some of the features had me going for a moment. Didn't it come with spoked wheels?

Back in 1974 I almost bought a 69? 750 but when I test drove it it vibrated and had a misfire. Around here there are no dealers and obrtaining parts was a concern.

This one sounded sweet.

Forget what they called it, but that was a model that Norton had for a year or two. Looks nicely preserved.

1971: The Street Scrambler and Hi Rider debut. The Street Scrambler had a rather short lifespan (about 5 months) with a small fuel tank and a very American style to it. The Hi Rider fared a little better with its ape hanger bars and a chopper seat mainly the U.S. market."
