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.

诺顿突击队 961 于 2010 年推出,是诺顿突击队标志性名称的现代复兴,由英国重新推出的诺顿摩托车公司生产。它采用了全新设计的961cc平行双缸发动机,同时向1960-70年代的经典突击队美学致敬,使其成为英国摩托车传统复兴的重要里程碑。值得注意的是,该车型是当时为数不多的真正由英国制造的摩托车之一,在英格兰多宁顿公园手工组装。

买家应该知道什么

⚙️

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.

7.2/10

"漂亮,有缺陷,完全值得痴迷。"

961 的转速从 3,500 rpm 的转速开始大幅拉动,你可以在整个车架中感受到经典的平行双胞胎重击——它确实让人上瘾,而现代自行车根本无法做到这一点。但我和诺顿的多宁顿公园小团队通电话的时间和骑车的时间一样长;早期的燃油喷射测绘很粗糙,电气设备是家庭工业用手工建造的,而我的Sport在4,000英里处开发了漏油装置,花了六周时间才解决问题。当它正常运行时,底盘——两端都带有奥林斯的焊接钢制主干——比复古外观所暗示的要锋利,尤其是Cafe Racer变体具有真实意图的操控性。你正在购买英国工业复兴的一部分,而这段恋情使你失去了可靠性和经销商支持。

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.
