Comments from the seller
Extremely rare GUS KUHN Norton commando 850, these bikes were built to order and this bike is one of only 5 ever built. I am the second owner of the bike and have all the original paperwork and bill of sale to authenticate the bike’s history. Have made some practical modifications to make the bike more street friendly including Tri-Spark electronic ignition and coils and solid state electronic charging system. Has recently had a top end freshen up with a hone and new rings and reduced compression to around 10 to 1 in order to make it easier to start and ride around town. This bike was sold as a Production Race bike as the documentation will support. Can be ridden on the road or display in your happy place. I have only owned this bike for 6 months and after a freshen up, I have just realised I can’t ride it. I am too large to ride a bike like this with clip on handlebars and rear sets . ( maybe 20 years ago, but not now )
