What a gem! It reminds me of the (much inferior!) 1972 Roadster I owned in the 1990s. How I wish UK roads 30 years later were not so excessively and plagued with unrepaired potholes (and careless, uninsured, unlicensed drivers in unroadworthy vehicles!). Many thanks for this video and for the first part.
Thank you sir. I'm about to view other videos of yours. By the way, I inadvertently omitted from my message "congested" in "... were not so excessively congested and plagued... ". With best wishes and admiration, Roger .@@LoscarMotorcycles
Simply brilliant! Well done and thanks for letting us feast our eyes on it. As a teen I would catch the train from the mining town of Springs to ogle one just like that at Jack’s Motors, the importers in Johannesburg. Later, I got my own 1973 850 version and it had Dunstall rearsets and clipons fitted. It’s still in great shape and part of a collection in said mining town.
The mighty Snortin Norton, what a beautiful resto you guys do on your machines. I have to admit a tinge of jealousy though because you show what can be achieved with unlimited funds that a lot of us dont have. Ive had to get by basically on a shoestring budget but have built some pretty awesome machines none the less.You guys have an awesome shop so keep up the great work restoring these timeless beauties!!
Splendid restoration! I had lots of trouble using Hylomar, though. Perhaps I needed to clean better. In Panama they were under $1000 new in 1970-71. I love the right-side shifter!
colección guapa, guapa. Todas están en las contraportadas de la colección "on your bike". Estas motos en los 80 ya eran leyendas clásicas. Ganas de ver esa Parilla!!!
Hola Tufillas: Ahora estoy con una Commando de 850 que será un poco especial y otra Triumph TR7RV de 1978 o sea un Tiger de 750 para mi hijo pequeño . La Parrilla poco a poco. Un abrazo amigo y gracias por seguir mis videos.
Norton, Triumph, BSA…. motos inglesas, ambiente cafe-racer… algún año tengo que ir a las carreras británicas (TT, Ulster GP, north west…) si quieres adoptar otro hijo…. me ofrezco voluntario. jajaja; sueldo aluminio con tig, barro el taller, lo que toque!!!
Hola Javier: Como veras, no es un nuevo video. Estoy recibiendo avisos de que en algunos países está bloqueado este de la segunda parte de la Commando Anoche le cambie la música y ahora parece que si se puede ver. Es una lástima porque en cada nuevo video, intento superarme en el montaje para que las imágenes y el sonido tengan ritmo y sean creativos. El otro me lo trabaje y me gusta más, pero con el copyright es lo que hay. Otro abrazo para ti amigo.
Loscar Motorcycles, cierto, en algún otro vídeo ocurrió lo que comentas. Yo desde Alemania esta segunda parte lo he podido ver sin problema. Lo dicho, una maravilla como ha quedado y esperando el próximo vídeo!
Damn that is too clean ! But will it go on the street ? I have the same bike only black ! With the big tankthat holds ? Gallons USA ? I forget hows much it holds ! Anyway, I was a a traffic light one day and smelled gasoline (petrol ). I looked down and saw the left carb float bowl hanging by 1 screw. If I shut it down the gasoline would hit the hot pipes and I would burn to death in an instant ! So I rolled it into a field nearby and was trying to figure a way out of this mess! A guy saw me and pulled over. He said "whats up " ? I told him what was happening. He said"reach down and hold up the float bowl and shut her down. No gas will be spilled that way. So I did it ! He then said, "take a screw from another place and put it in the float bowl " ! I forget where the other screw came from, but I found one and did it ! Holy shi - ! It worked ! I turned around and got home safely. Found a spare screw and put it in and lived to tell this here ! Love to ride her but alas she is a garage queen now ! Too many close calls from fools on smart -as phones !

PS "excessively CONGESTED". Do you still have the "show-stopper"?
Hello Roger, thank you very much for commenting. I'm glad you like it and thank you for watching my videos.
Best wishes, Loscar.

Cmon, there's got to be some sledgehammers flying and cursing in there somewhere.
Beautiful job. This guy is the best.

Love the blue! So nice
Just beautiful!
Truly a thing of beauty.

I LİKE THİS COLOUR!
I know your secret, you have a time machine ..... looks like it hasn't yet left the factory. Beautiful bike
Nicely done.
Now, get it on the roads and let it be

Un trabajo fantástico!!; que gusto da escuchar el rugido de una Commando tan redonda!

El sonido del motor es la mejor música por mi oídos ❤
Fantástico 👍
Norton's were an eyecatcher in the 70s
Que alegría y que placer volver a disfrutar de uno de tus vídeos. Impresionante como está la Norton, que preciosidad.
Un fuerte abrazo amigo !

Great colour
I'm in love 😍
We had a Norton Atlas here in Canada that looked exactly like this Commando
Me gustan mucho estos "interstate" !

Friend William: Thank you!!!!
Maravilhosa!
That's a Innerstate model, I bought a Roadster in 71 off the showroom floor for $1695.00
good sound
Bellísima complimenti 👍
Gracias por ver
How did you get the chrome so shinny. I'm trying to buff but it's just not getting it as nice.
perfeita parabéns.
Not sure why Loscar has the tach on the left as opposed to the right side where the factory installed them? Each to their own.
..better than new
Χαίρομαι που σας αρέσει. Χαιρετισμούς
