Norton Commando Café Racer

Since when did
American builders turned their heads towards Norton Commandos? Not for long, but
they do some of the best and most expensive Norton Commandos ($39,500 each) in
the Colorado Norton Works located in the Rocky Mountains.
In an attempt to
retain the original look and sound, the bike called Norton Café, uses an 865cc
British parallel twin so it isn’t that American after all. The project is run by
Matt Rambow who plans to built only 13 such motorcycles in batches of three
until the summer of 2010.
Modern times call
modern features so the engine is fuel injected and develops 60bhp, there is a
pair of Brembo disc brakes, a CNC-machined cylinder head, 2-inch lowered
suspensions, a hydraulic clutch, belt primary drive and hand made alloy body
panels.
