The Norton Commando 961 is offered in two versions internationally - Sport and Cafe Racer; but it is the former that we will be getting first. The modern-classic offerngs draws design inspiration from motorcycles of the 1960s while packing in a modern engine underneath. Power on the Commando 961 comes from a 961 cc, air-cooled, fuel-injected, parallel-twin engine with a 270-degree crank that churns out 79 bhp and 90 Nm of peak torque. The engine gets new die-cast cases, head and cylinder, with Nikasil bore plating inside the cylinder, and is paired with a five-speed transmission.
