Updated Commando Wiring Diagrams

Forums

My little website gets around a hundred visits per day, and about half of them go to the same page, which has been there since 2019 and shows the colorised and corrected wiring diagrams for the Norton Commando.

I have received a lot of feedback over the years, and am pleased to be able to incorporate some of that in a major update:

better resolution – they can be printed on A2 paper (23.4in x 16.5in) without any loss of quality.
sized for UK and Europe – originally the page was sized for US Legal (14in x 8.5in) paper, and resizing for A4/A3/A2 standard didn’t work.
cable colours were confusing – it was difficult to see what was the dominant colour ‘vs’ what was the trace colour.
for MK3 move the key switch from the right to the left side of the page.
show the warning lamp colours.
lighter background – ideally there would be no background, but as there are a lot of white cables this would make it difficult to read. I have lightened up the background, and outlined the white cables, it works much better for printing now.
make points/condenser arrangement clearer.
show terminals on turn signal flasher unit.
group additional fuses on early MK3 schematic.
improve labelling.

The updated diagrams are as follows:
