Norton 961 Commando California 50th Anniversary Limited Edition & Givi Luggage

To celebrate the Norton Commando's 50th anniversary, 1968 to 2018, Norton released a limited run of 50 Norton Commando California models in 2018. These were simply a Norton 961 Commando Mk11 with higher bars, chromed headlight, polished Öhlins forks and ABS Brembo brakes.

My bike carries a numbered plaque on its top yoke showing number 49 of 50 made and was registered on 1st Feb 2019.

The bike, when purchased, had a decat exhaust system fitted and remapped at a cost of £300. The original full stainless steel exhaust system with multiple 3-way catalytic converter, and is Euro 4 compliant, is included.

I also had Givi luggage panniers fitted at a cost of £550. Both items are listed on receipt.

The colour matched seat cowl with the 50th anniversary logo, has been signed by 32 times TT winner John McGuinness and Pete Hickman who holds the lap record of the TT course at 135.452 mph.

The total cost I paid last year for the bike was £17500 and purchased from Thor Motorcycles in Bodmin, Cornwall. I shall include the original receipt, for provenance.

I have loved owning and riding this bike, but unfortunately it has to go.

You are more than welcome to come and view the bike and I live in Plymouth.

I have listed the bike at a realistic price, as I need to sell it asap. It comes with the original exhaust system, Givi luggage, Norton paddock stand and service book with Norton document pouch.
