Disregard my reply in the PM Marty. This is who I was also talking about.

I banned both of them. I don’t get on FB all that often, but if y’all catch a scammer on the 650 Society FB page please alert me and I will put that user in the dumpster.

Great grab for someone!
Someone on here should jump on this!

Genuine patina AND Free shipping!

 

[gggGary]

I have no illusions about the XLCR's performance (though it was billed as the fastest HD of that era) - I still want one

I'm fortunate gggGary hasn't offered to store it until my garage addition is done (not a hint, just my bikeaholic brain at work)

Storage offer made.
Free regular exercise to keep fresh tire surfaces ready for the master's touch.

Ummm...I'm pretty sure those tires are the original 1977 RWL Dunlops Goodyears

Thank you sir - I'm trying my best to stay "on the wagon", but it's sat at $15K for a few days and an XLCR in that condition typically goes for $23-25K (not that I'd flip it) - still 5 2 days left......

Man, Id soooo love to own one of those old XLCR's...

 

[gggGary]

Heated van transportation from Green Bay to TSOIR.
I would need this to sit and admire it.

Lots of nice 'stuff' on that one...no wonder it's popular.
Chrome tank?

Regarding that Norton 850, The Youtube channel "Bikes and Beards" bought a NOS in-the-crate 1975 Norton 850 Commando for $17k. This is his unboxing and starting video:

Looking into it a bit, it turns out there were 7 of these stored somewhere, all brand new in the crate. I wonder if the ebay listing was one of those.

 

[gggGary]

hmm must have had an error in the listing, the 73 Norton auction is on again.
https://www.ebay.com/itm/1956695712...uid=tW1migcmQPO&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

It's got e-start! You could ride it.

 

[Jan_P]

I don't like the Saddle
I don't like the Front brake
There is 22 000 miles on the odometer A Norton can run Beautiful Mechanically but it can also rattle.
Hot Rodding Slow on the Oil changes and Warm up.
I would not pay 8 k without hear a cold start..
Normal Maintenance Normal rattle ( Wear ) sub 10 k

Another '73 just sold on BaT for $13+K with 16k mi. (no E-Leg)

 

[MrBultaco]

"Pin Setter" cafe bikes and was never so disappointed in my life

I finally read the comments on this XLCR and want to know if you are Oldwood on the BaT sight? He didn't like it either and bought it in Kansas City.
