Norton Commando 961

The Norton Commando 961 has a top speed of 195 km/h, produces 79 hp and weighs 198 kg. Motoryk rates it 7.5/10.

노턴 코만도 961은 영국에서 재출시한 노턴 모터사이클이 제작한 상징적인 노턴 코만도 이름을 현대적으로 되살린 것으로 2010년에 출시되었습니다.1960~70년대의 클래식한 코만도 미학에 경의를 표하는 동시에 새롭게 설계된 961cc 병렬 트윈 엔진이 탑재되어 영국 모터사이클 헤리티지 부활의 중요한 획을 그었습니다.이 모델은 당시 영국 도닝턴 파크 (Donington Park) 에서 수작업으로 조립된 몇 안 되는 진정한 영국 제작 오토바이 중 하나로 유명했습니다.

⚙️

Isolastic Frame System

The 961 uses Norton's signature Isolastic rubber-mounting system to isolate the engine from the frame, dramatically reducing vibration. This unique engineering keeps rider fatigue low on long rides and is a core part of the Commando's identity.

⚠️

Watch for Early Build Issues

Early production models (2010–2013) had documented quality control problems including oil leaks, electrical gremlins, and inconsistent assembly from the revived Norton factory. Always verify the bike has had issues addressed and request full service history.

💰

Strong Collector Resale Value

As a low-volume, hand-built British motorcycle, the 961 holds its value exceptionally well and is increasingly viewed as a future collectible. Limited production numbers and brand heritage make well-maintained examples appreciate rather than depreciate.

"아름답고, 결함이 있으며, 집착할 가치가 전혀 없습니다."

961은 스켈레톤 전체에서 느낄 수 있는 클래식한 병렬 트윈 덤프를 장착하여 3,500rpm에서 강력한 성능을 발휘합니다. 현대 자전거에서는 느낄 수 없는 진정한 중독성을 지니고 있습니다.하지만 저는 자전거를 탈 때만큼이나 Norton의 소규모 도닝턴 파크 (Donington Park) 팀과 전화 통화를 하는 데 많은 시간을 보냈습니다. 초기의 연료 분사 매핑은 거칠었고, 전기 장치는 손으로 지은 오두막 산업 제품이었고, 우리 스포츠는 4,000마일에서 오일 청소기를 개발했는데 분류하는 데 6주가 걸렸습니다.제대로 작동하면 양쪽 끝에 Öhlins가 있는 용접된 강철 등뼈가 있는 섀시가 복고풍 디자인보다 더 선명하며, 특히 Cafe Racer 변형은 진정한 의도를 가지고 핸들링합니다.영국의 산업 부흥기를 맞이한 제품을 구매하는 것인데, 이러한 로맨스 때문에 신뢰성과 딜러 지원이 손실됩니다.

장점

+본능적이고 개성 있는 961cc 트윈
+우수한 Öhlins 서스펜션 양쪽 끝
+멋진 수작업 핏과 마감
+정말 희귀합니다. 계속 고개를 돌립니다

단점

초기 전기 장치는 당혹스러울 정도로 신뢰할 수 없습니다.
딜러 네트워크가 거의 존재하지 않음
3k rpm 미만의 거친 연료 분사

Passionate riders who enjoy fettling British character

"Magnificent when sorted, but budget for inevitable remedial work upfront."

$12,000-$18,000 used

The 961 is genuinely special — a hand-built British twin that sounds and feels unlike anything Japanese or European money can buy. That parallel twin burbles and snorts in ways that make you grin at every set of traffic lights. But go in with your eyes wide open: Norton's production quality during the Donington era was inconsistent at best. You'll find bikes with oil leaks, electrical gremlins, and parts that simply weren't finished to the standard the price tag demanded. Always get a full service history and budget another grand for remedial work regardless. That said, when one's sorted and running right, it's an experience. The handling is taut and old-school rewarding, the brakes are decent, and the riding position suits longer legs. Resale values have actually held surprisingly well given the brand drama. Buy from a specialist, not a general dealer — someone who actually knows these bikes. Insist on a pre-purchase inspection from a Norton-familiar mechanic. It'll save you considerable heartache.
