I like how easily the front end came off the ground. It also had a very generic new bike whir to the motor when the throttle was blipped and I learned why they are so expensive, the economy!

Do NOT assume the sounds was from the Norton. If it was it also makes a huge difference where the mic was placed.
 
Wonderful to see new Norton name in major media. Don't be fooled by the wheelie appearing as just a roll on front lift, the sound track is not matched to the images, so just like a real Commando he had to rev up some and drop clutch to get er up. Still the prettiest newbie out there.

Never thought of that Dave, but it reminded me of a new Triumph Bonneville. I'm sure with aftermarket mufflers it would sound pretty nice. It is a darn shame they have to be so friggin expensive.
