    Mate you are blessed.I have had Nortons forever and love them, my first Norton was a 1971 750 Commando and then a 1975 MK 111 Commando.I then purchased a 1980 80cu in HD Superglide followed by a 1990 Heritage Softail and then my finest purchase from HD my 2007 Night Rod, the best motorcycle ever to come from the USA.I had intentions to purchase a new era Commando 961 but fate stepped in and I was deemed medically unfit due to a work telated injury, I was so pissed off about it all and the new Norton now has become a dream.

    What a stunning machine! I'm very jealous... I'd be proud as punch owning one!

    A piece of art. More beautiful than Claudia Schiffer aged 18! Never seen such a beauty. It is a great success in terms of design. Owners are lucky. I wonder also what a full black version could look like....But this version is just awesome. I am so happy that Norton was able to make it for the sake of the world motorcycle industry. Norton is a legend. And legend never disappear. Long live Norton!

    If you haven't found it yet there's a charging cable under the seat. It's tucked up inside a rubber grommet if looking from underneath.

    its one of my favourate bike ,love to UK from india for giving world such good bikes ,its my dream bike too and i will buy it smeday when my network marketing business will expand more in world ,its best business model in world ,u can build it anytime after college or job anywhere with no investment whatsoever and it doesnt need high degrees as anyone can build it successfully ,i am not any advertiser or stuff of any netwrk mrkting company but i am going with AMWAY as its best in my opinion...its the beat asset for middle class guys to build among all ssets. other assets like real estate need high investment first but not in this

    Hi Auto Addict 74 I am a motorcycle engine design nut and I wonder if you could answer a simple question about your Norton engine. Does it have a cam position sensor. Have a look at the front of the crankcase ahead of the cylinder block. If it has a cam sensor this is where it will be and it will have a wire coming out of it. I am trying to determine whether it has waste spark ignition or timed ignition and the presence of a cam sensor will tell me this. I used to own a commando roadster.Got more enjoyment out of this bike than any other. I have taken a keen interest in these new Nortons but have not yet seen one in New Zealand.

    I'm not crazy about the battery weight so high up but I suppose it has one of those expensive lightweight batteries. Desperately needs a pig tail installed for charging access. That, mind you, is a cheap convenience solution all bikes can benefit from (and often is supplied at the dealer on show room bikes).

      AutoAddict74 hi I’m from Abu Dhabi I have no #154 and have completed some small custom items to mine, straight from the NORTON Factory, seat, mirrors, front screen, also have wrap to the tank not perfect but good for the protection. Did my mufflers with Cafe Rider maybe we compare sometime.
