"Norton Commando 850 MkIII Interstate" (1976)
The 1976 Norton
Commando 850 MkIII Interstate in silver is the final evolution of the
legendary Commando series, representing the culmination of years of
development and refinement. The MkIII model featured several upgrades
over its predecessors, including an electric starter, left-side gear
shift, and a fully enclosed rear chain, making it more user-friendly and
reliable. The 850cc parallel-twin engine remained the heart of the bike,
delivering 60bhp and a top speed of around 115mph, with plenty
of low-end torque for effortless cruising. The silver colour scheme of
the MkIII Interstate added a touch of modernity and elegance, contrasted
by chrome accents and the classic Norton logo. The larger fuel tank,
comfortable seat, and upright riding position made the Interstate an
excellent touring machine, capable of covering long distances with ease.
The Isolastic frame system continued to provide a smooth and stable
ride, ensuring that the MkIII maintained the handling characteristics
that the Commando series was famous for. The 1976 Norton Commando 850
MkIII Interstate in silver is a celebrated classic.
