Frame Details:
Condition - Full Disclosure:The frame was powder coated in gloss black but shows moderate wear from storage. Multiple scuffs, scrapes, and some areas worn through to bare metal from handling over the years. The finish would benefit from touch-up or complete refinishing for a show-quality restoration.
The Important Part:The frame itself is structurally sound and straight. For anyone doing a proper restoration, you're going to strip and refinish anyway. For a rider build, it's perfectly usable as-is. The real value here is having a straight frame with its original factory VIN plate - increasingly hard to find.
'72 was a great year for Commandos - right in the sweet spot before the 850 changeover.
Price: $350 CAD - FIRE SALE, LOSING MY STORAGE
Located in midtown Toronto.
Happy to answer questions or provide additional photos. Looking for serious builders who understand that cosmetics are easy, but finding straight original-number frames is getting harder every year.
