- 2019 Norton Commando California 50th Anniversary Limited Edition 49/50
- Sold new through Thor Motorcycles Ltd, Bodmin
- Purchase receipt and book pack available
To celebrate the Commando’s 50th anniversary, Norton released a limited run of 50 California models in 2018. These were based on a Norton 961 Commando with higher bars, chrome around the headlight and polished Öhlins forks. Each one carried a number plaque on its top yoke and came with an option of exhaust styles. “The Café Racer, Sport and California will each be pimped-out with a full range of our polished billet aluminium and carbon fibre special parts, then we’re discounting them back to the price of the standard model without all that, as a bit of a thank you to our customers for all the support the Commando has had over the years that’s enabled it to enjoy a 50th anniversary".
This 2018 Norton California JPN Special is just one of only 50 ever to have been produced. Number 49 was sold through Thor Motorcycles Ltd, Bodmin, Cornwall to a Mr Squance on the 14th February 2019 and was ordered with 'long loud pipes'. Mr Sqaunce then sold the Norton to the current vendor on the 3rd June 2020, as he wanted one as part of his collection of motorcycles. The Norton has not been used in the last couple of years and will need checking over before use. It's accompanied by its original invoice pre-delivery inspection sheet, book pack with handbook, and service book with three stamps in, with the last one showing 1,797 miles.
