General   (General discussion, talk about anything.)

A Commando, Yes I had one as well, the new interstate, ( well new at the time) 1973, A great bike, the smoothest of the British bikes because of the rubber mounted engine plates but, I had loads of issues with oil leaking onto the points, so much so that I took it back to millers and did a deal with a Bonneville, the bonnie was 2 years old but low mileage and I has so much fun on that bike that I felt I was doing something illegal , fun fun fun every day just for the price of petrol, £1 to fill the 3 gallon tank, It stopped after a while though, Mrs Plum came into my life and after a few short years, The Bonnie had to go, On the bright side, I've still got Mrs Plum and even though the milage is high, she starts every morning and plods on, the chain rattles a bit but no oil leaks and good on fuel,
