"This is the go-to book for anyone repairing or restoring a Norton Commando. If I were to entrust a Norton Commando re-build to a professional and couldn't give the job to Norman White himself, I'd want to know that whoever carried out the work had studied this book." - Vintage Bike

"Whilst there are many glossy marque “manuals” published, some of which give the impression of being quick “cut-and-paste” compilations by authors who have never even ridden the bike, this excellent and well-written book is in a different league. Highly recommended, by a former Fastback owner." - Classic Motorcycle
