I once saw a chart showing VIN# and dates of when Nortons were made. Anyone know where I can find this again?

There's one on Dyno Dave's site:

http://www.bmh.com.au/norton/index.php?id=modelnum (Many of the 1972-on Commando numbers/dates on this list are not correct!)

http://www.norvilmotorcycle.co.uk/engrange.htm (Commando model/year info. incomplete.)

I find my '71 Commando built in '70, as it does have nearly everything " '70 " related, square box oil tank, ring around headlight,tripletrees,frame, bolt-on rear hub, I often wondered why the center stand didn't reach the ground. (both tires are 4.10-19) and there's probably some other things not mentioned or I don't know. The only thing I've come accrossed with the Dunstall is that it takes the 6ca points rather than the 10ca, as it is titled "73" built in "72".
