Since it's "brand new," I guess I could pony up the price for a brand new Norton Commando. Where do I send the 1400 bucks?

I hope the next owner will put the bike on the road where it belongs, and burn the crate in his fireplace, so we will not be annoyed with this thing anymore every couple of years.

Agree, close up shows corrosion. it appears to be derading in the crate.
If for some odd reason I were to become the owner its value would immediately go down as I would have to uncrate it, then......

Can’t see that a rusty Commando in a crate is worth much.

Not Norton, but the same situation.

I only hope that I would react in the same way.
