Weren't the blue one's and subsequent white Nortons JPN as in plain John Player Norton.
They were pretty quick with Mr Williams and Mr Croxford on them.

Croxford was a real character. The Norton’s there were just the end of an era. Very old technology right at the end of very old development and very little money by Japanese standards. Honda were building little six cylinder Swiss watches with huge budgets and crushing them afterwards and the Commando was really designed a full generation before.
