Hi Guys, my names John and I am from New Zealand. After 20 years of lusting after a Black and Gold 750 Commando I have finally got one. Broke all the rules on this....didn't see it in the metal, didn't ride it....only saw photos and a talked to the owner. He is selling it as he is retiring and some of his collection has to go.
Its a 72 Combat. Its had a lot of practical mods done to it and the owner says it will sit on 70 all day every day.
I had a 71 BSA Lightning for a couple of years when I lived in Ireland in the early 00's and I miss that style of bike.
Currently I have a Ducati Darmah and a 900ssie....and two Triumph projects....
Going to fly down and pick it up, then a 3 hour ferry crossing and 400 miles home.....should be a good spin...... :roll:
