so would I . But unfortunaely honda kicked Ass. and so a legend Dies..MexicoMike said:In '71 when my Commando was $1595, Tommy Wages Motor Sports (Columbus, GA) was selling Honda 750s for $1495.
Let's see...I could spend $1495 and get a bulletproof, leakproof, electric-start, overhead cam, smooth, 4 cyl modern-engined Honda OR I could spend more for a unreliable, leaky, kickstart, pushrod, vibrating (cA 1947) 2 cyl -engined Commando. Hmmm...That's an easy no brainer, I'll buy a Commando!
