Norton 850 Commando

This is the bike I road for a couple of years. It was the best handling production motorcycle in 1974. I was racing a couple of crotch rockets going down Paper Mill Road in Marietta and I flat tracked it on dry asphalt at nearly 90 mph...and this was around a 25 mph curve! I had to use a bit of the other lane so if a car had of been coming I would be dead. Later on a lady made an illegal left turn in front of me and I went over the hood of her car...it totaled out my bike.
