This appears to be the Commando once owned by Sonny Angel (Eng.326069).
Slightly painful to watch in places because little or no research appears to have been done beforehand.
 
Agree, difficult to watch for any Norton enthusiast. They know little about Nortons. I am glad they got it running. Those boxes were not made to last 50 years.
 
Very painful to watch
Shame they didn't turn the choke off
 
The guy can't read. He drags his finger across "Los Angeles" and says "England."
 
Just a shame he was riding with the choke full on wondering why the bike wouldn't clear

The choke is off but as it's a LH assembly on the right the lever is pointing forward.

But to take a bike out with no working front brake and handlebar wiring dangling!

It has no direction indicators which is odd unless they couldn't be bothered to fit them.
 
Just dumped oil in it without priming or checking the return, but they appear to have got away without it seizing!

I hope I'm not the only one ?
