I wonder how many Commandos are represented on this forum? Either running, in parts, or Commandos we've owned or did significant work on for others who aren't on the forum.

Sometimes I just wonder these wierd things...

This is an unscientific poll.

Mine
'75 880 Dreer prototype monoshocker
'75 850 Interstate
'72 750 Dunstallized Combat
'72 750 Production Racer replica
'70 750 hard tail chopper rolling project

Have built or owned, and sold
'74 850 Monoshock special
'74 860 Interstate
'73 750 Roadster
'72 750 Roadsters (3)
'70 750 Roadsters (3)

Restored for clients not on the forum
'75 880 Roadster
'75 850 High Rider (converted to cafe)

That's 16 for me...

Plus (2) others I restored that ARE on the forum (cmessenk & hungryjoe)

2:
A large, expensive pile-o-1971 currently having $ thrown at it.

And I used to have a 1973 850 (300558), I foolishly sold it years ago.

1 1972 Roadster project nearing completion.

1 1970 Roadster sold to me as a new 1971 model, long gone and much missed.

It's not about how many EACH, it's about how many this forum represents.

Well, send me the 'S' and $8K and I'll fix it up for you, I'm looking for a project. You could even use it for functional sculpture in the studio.
