I just got my 1974 Norton Commando 850 from my uncle and it's been my daily driver for about 8 weeks now. I am concerned about a few things. First the tight cornering. Is there any way I can improve its turning radius? and how one can improve comfort? It is really stiff and uncomfortable so are there any suspension adjustments I can make or any aftermarket seats to install for improved comfort?
I do like its raunchy sound but I have been pulled over a couple of times for that so is there anything I can do to limit its sound?
And one more thing, my initial thoughts were to sell it and go for the scrambler but would it be a nice move to sell this and buy the Ducati scrambler? It is only 6900 miles driven so any estimate of how much will it be worth these days? and I think I could bag a 2020 scrambler around 9K. The bike is in pristine condition only a few scratches on the tank due to putting a tank bag over it. but I guess it could be removed by compound and buffing
Your suggestion would be highly appreciated.
Thanks.
