Hey All,
New to this forum...have been running a couple of Nortons for years now...a 750 and an 850. Picked the 850 up around '89 or so and rebuilt it around '99. I have always wondered about the 850 because it is in Fastback trim and it is my understanding that the Fastback was only produced in the early years as a 750cc.
What is the concensus here...just a previous owner that switched out bodywork or is it possible that the factory...towards the end and dieing days put together bikes from whatever parts were lieing around.
tink
