Almost certain  they were all black. Grey can look very good though! I saw one with matching grey tank at the Norton Euro rally in June, built by Norton Holland Works.

hi jan
the grey looks good but should it be black? there is no sign that it has been repainted from factory. maybe an import?

I've never heard of any factory Commando having a frame in anything other than black — except, of course, for the Earls Court show prototype.

does seam strange, i am thinking of painting it but if that is the original colour i think it should stay. any ideas as to how i can find out? thanks Daryl
