House of Fraser Norton Commando

I'd like to know what kind of front brake that is and how the caliper attaches to the slider.

After a quick glance (I don't own a TV and, boy..... do I NOT miss this sort of dross!) I would guess it's one of Mr Emery's front ends. I could go back, pause and expand, but once is more than enough for one day!!

But all credit to them for choosing a Commando, obviously no one told them it didn't steer straight, vibrates, loses oil, is grossly eco unfriendlyetc.. etc...

Hope they've got good lawyers, promoting such irresponsible lifestyle options!

My Good Lady works at the place which makes a lot of the clothing worn in the advert (Helen Moore). The only way she could get me interested in seeing the ad was by telling me it had a Norton in it!

Of course, had they been made at Bracebridge St.? !!!!!!

Saw it tonight but as usual not paying attention until the Norton appeared, cool, so are House of Fraser selling Classic commandos now, now I know who bought the rest of the stuff from Mick and Angela after Joe had his pick.

The reason way they got a commando has there still many of them around Unlike My Norton Manxman 650 there is only dozen in this country for a start and only 45 on my Register world wide that how rare there rare ,

a norton commando is a cool looking bike thats the reason it was used! nothing to do with rarity

Shame no one checked the FOS indicator !!

The rarest production Norton has to be the 650DL ,never seen one.

I see Gucci have joined the advertisers featuring a Norton Commando

Yes, I saw that the other night. I seem to think it is a re-run from last Christmas advertising, though I may be wrong.
