The clarity of the videography, sound and production is now incredible. The clarity in this one is like I am there. Never been to South Wold truly English in a country battered by the media. I am in awe of you riding that bike, why would anyone want one?so many bikes as good and much better with comfort. Just nostalgia imo. And I am of that era but hated British bikes of the day when I started riding Japanese bikes. Dead right about size of bike for uk roads. Light and nimble and thrash a small motor, same with cars. Not seen Monica for a while hope she’s well. All the best so excited for the bonny. Now that’s a British bike I would have after Joes done that you lucky devil.

Just realized again how beautiful Britain is.

I wonder if the 850 is doing better. I just rode mine 320 km home today from the dealer with spectacular comfort and handling despite me being six ft-four and age 70.

Very entertaining 😂

information about your boots please

Freddie, the stretching part was hilarious 😂

Thanks Freddie, beautiful video and thoughts shared. You should come out to California and go up the coast and visit the National Parks. 👍

This man has done more for British/Indian relations than any politician in recent history. Love form India 🇮🇳

Use a cut off, bit of sheepskin my brother Tailbone issue

I toured on a TL1000S. I recognise those relief seeking contortions! Top pain. Top effort sir.

What is a real biker? Who cares! No one has to justify to others what they are classed as. And no one has the right to judge. Just enjoy life in your own way. What people say behind my back is none of my business because I make sure it isn’t! 😊

That's probably the WORST portrait of Lord Nelson I've ever seen! 😅

I like it. I wish my Moto Guzzi Griso had 2-3 inches more forward pedals similar to the Comando....I get you would like the pegs closer to mid but remember that is the place they put pegs at... Also I'm hoping they tried the pegs over the obvious ranges but either way you will b the one to correct it should you buy... Moto Guzzi, please add 30--45 more HP. You could also add 30 more HP in the early rev range

Brilliant video Freddie seaside countryside this is what biking is all about.After 50yrs of biking I’m to old and sore to continue but these videos bring it all back.Thank you Freddie.

I could feel your pain, Freddie. This video completely changed my idea of owning a Norton and only confirmed that it's between a RE Interceptor or a Bonnie. By the way, I couldn't help notice the lack of young people in those beautiful towns 😏 Love your videos, cheers!

its for 2000 gbp in india

Should I start my biker journey all over again: speed 400 or its sister, the scrambler.

One word Freddie. Cycling undershorts 🙂👌

I love the honesty but don't think you did much justice to long distance biking or the Norton!probably put people of apart from the die hards. I I don't think Norton will be too pleaded!

It really does look nice.

Did you test ride the triumph? What do you think about the scrambler 400 vs the interceptor?

I feel your pain Freddie when you were doing your stretches & joints popping & I was waiting for you to lose your Brit charm & just say that this bike is such a literal pain in the a$$! 😂 You had me laughing! As a retired U.S. Army veteran I have my bad days when I ride sometimes, but I've been more intentional about how long my travel days are & Im consistently stretching when I ride to stay loosened up. But as you mentioned before you left, if you have to think twice about riding your bike because it's extremely uncomfortable then it takes any joy out of the adventure. Cheers from across the pond

I’m told that the Norton Owners manual includes a list of chiropractors

You say what many viewers including myself think when we see these styles of bikes but almost no other UA-camrs dare to say. Well done Freddie 👍

It’s like riding a sport bike long distance, it’s really an achievement. You can’t imagine the pain until you do it.

That exhaust is so quiet! I couldn't even tell it's HD if wuld judge by the sound. I guess that's why not many people keep it stock...

With his helmet and sunglasses this guy has serious young Paul Newman energy

Bud the fatboy is much better

Fun Fact ,Moto Guzzi and French's fish shop both started in the same year.😄

Great video !! Such a beautiful bike !! How tall are you Freddie ? That really helps to know when sizing up different bikes. Really like your style and thanks for making these videos.

Freddie invest in a motorcycle seat cushion for when you get those press bike that are like the Norton. No reason you can’t at lease reduce the pain.

Well done, Freddie, 13 hours on the Norton, incredible. You deserve the "Hard Arse" of the year award😂

I could think or worse things to do.....stop ya whinging ya typical pom lol. Sorry Freddie had to say it being an Aussie myself. Or like we say here in Australia " eat some cement and hardin the hell up" Beautiful bike mate. Enjoy every moment

Thanks!

The moral to the story: Never ride with a group, friends or otherwise. Take the route that you planned and then get home in time for tea.

*Fancy a long arse trip to the sea on a Monday?* YES, PLEASE. (Eight days a week, if I could.)

Not to knock anyone but only 340 miles in 13 hour's it's to hard. 700+ in that time.

I'm glad that you did but how many times did you have to turn around and go back and get your camera?

Love it, physiotherapy in a Beech forest. :-) Proved the point that the Norton is not designed as a long distance tourer, you were brave to try that.

12:14 that's a very low tide

Freddie, you aged 13 years in 13 hours, right? 😂 David Lee Roth once said (and I am sure he plagiarized), “it’s how you look, not how you feel that matters . “ And wow, the Norton Commando will make anyone look good. Cheers!

liked and commented for the suffering. i just bought a speed 400 and love it. god bless your back! 🙏

Nice to see you in my neck of the woods in Cromer. Great video Freddie. Myself and mates are off on a ride to Aldeburgh tomorrow, can’t beat a ride along the coast.

Is there anything you would change on the Norton to aid in comfort? For example a more plush seat, different handle bars, move the foot pegs, some or all?

Though late man. with this comment. Love all your reviews. Its like your reviewing food i could taste the bike through your words.

Its funny I am 55, and I have a practical adventure bike in the Tenere 700, and I want, impractical, unreliable bike that will break my back :):) They are just cool, and talk to your heart, opposed to your brain... and I will not apologize for that :):):)

The Commando seems like a great touring bike.

If only my ears weren't so picky with engine tone. This bike looks far better than my Gen 3 SV

That last 2 hours must have been tough... I love a day ride. But usually only about 250-300km for me. An hour on "b roads" 2 or 3 hours in the forest, dirt tracks, ferns and mud.. then an hour home... And that last hour can be tough (on the new old RE scram 411)... 13 hours on a Norton! Well done indeed. Muzatron from Geelong Victoria OZ
