Which rim size and rear tire size is fitted? It looks quite a bit wider than WM2 ... I like the looks :)

Yes, the rim is an 18" WM3. Tire is an Avon Roadrider 110/90.

Hmmmm....just sitting here wondering (oh yeah, 71 days until redeployment back to the US of A!!!!!) why there is no "post a picture of your Norton" thread on this forum. Am I missing some area of the forum that folks can post a pic of their Commando instead of on random threads? Seems it would be easier to devote one thread to this topic exclusively sort of like over at the Britbike forum. Just a suggestion.

I am a noob to this forum so just tell me to shut my pie hole if it has been discussed before (it probably has). I for one would really enjoy checking out owner photos of the most legendary of ALL british bikes...NORTON COMMANDO. :p

I wonder too! How one can submit a picture of their bike to Access Norton site. I have looked thinking that I am missing some link on the site that would allow me to do so. It seems some members can submit in their replies but I don't how they do it?
 
If you want the site to host/store your uploaded image, then you need to make a payment to become a VIP member. Otherwise you can link to an image hosted somewhere else (like PBASE.com...PhotoBucket has a new policy that block image linking under their free accounts).

Just joined the forum. Above photo is of me, back in the day aboard my Triton. (Note the chopped Commando front end, drum brake and AMC/Commando trans-- used an AJS kicker that was superior to Norton-factory.) Dig the Dresda seat! Note also, the tools attached to the utility belt. How we were bikers, back then.

Served as a Norton mechanic decades ago. Bought my first Commando in 1978. Have owned roadsters, a PR replica and a JPN replica. Have 920 competition experience, from 30 years ago. Perhaps I can be of use to this forum.
