Hi All. New commando owner and restorer here.
May I pose a question to those more knowlegable than myself.
I have just purchased a commando, the plate says made in Dec. 71. However it has a combat engine and front disc brake, which I believe didn't arrive till 72.
The question is , for the purpose of parts sourcing IDing etc., should I consider it a 71 or a 72 ? The engine and frame No. is 202***.
Also did they come out with fibreglass tanks and sidecovers ? There sure is a lot to learn ....
Thanks in advance.
Great site with ton of knowlegable folk. Glad to be a part of it.
