Help in Oklahoma City

Working on putting a norton commando 850 back together. could use somebody with expertise to help out. I've done several japanese bikes, but they are very different. if anybody is around and wants to help i would greatly appreciate it.

Im in Norman, Oklahoma, 30 min south of Oklahoma City. if anybody want to help let me know!

HaHa, I was going to ask in the other post who in OKC did the work because I can't remember ever seeing a Norton on the road here. Now I got the idea your trying to flush me out cause you've seen one running around town. Brought roaring back to life with the help of folks here. I guess since Hobot got run off or quit posting ill have to post video links to prepare you as caretaker of one of these fine motorbikes. pm sent

Hello. Chris Wedman runs this place in Oklahoma City:

http://www.wedmanmotorsports.com/

I have taken Norton, Triumph, and BSA work to Chris since ... before 2001 ??? ... as well as Buell and Yamaha XS650 stuff, whenever I'm in OKC, which in 2002 and 2003 was three months at a time. He is great to work with, and always did quality work for me. He even owns, and rides occasionally, a Norton Hi Rider ... that I think his uncle gave him.

Hope this helps, cheers.

cool deal, ill have to check him out. speaking of yamaha xs650s, this is the one I'm finishing up now...

Cooool 8) I've always loved the Yamaha XS650 too ... and yours looks great !!! Cheers.
