Norton Commando description

Ok   i bought this from the second owner.  He had re wired the bike and put in an electronic ignition with new coils..( It had sat for a while in a climate controlled garage..)   When I got it I took it to Baxter Cycle and had them put 2 new Amal carbs on it.  They also went over it and tidied up anything that needed doing...Since then, I have put about 30 miles on it...I now have a 75 850 and can't keep both...There is a small dent in the right muffler from the kickstart rubbing on it and the previous owner put some tap on a small crack on the rear fender...Otherwise ,it starts on one kick..Snarls like a Norton should and the electrics work...Looks to be original headlight and tires....I am by no means an expert and since I did not buy it new I can't verify it is all original but it sure does look like it to me...I have a copy of the previous owners title that states the mileage is accurate and everything else looks original and great..If you have less than 10 feedbacks contact me before bidding or I will cancel your bid...Thanks!!
