Norvil Commando

My dream bike. However... I owned a Commando 850 Mk2A for 38 years and sold it in the end because my aging legs could no longer start it. It was fitted with 8.5:1 pistons. The above beauty, I assume, would have the Combat engine with 10:1 pistons. Definitely couldn't start this one. And I'm sure that if it had a mind to, it could easily launch you over the handlebars if it kicked back. Still, it would be nice to have in the living room.
