Hi, I have a model 7, 1955 chrome tank, I also require tank and rear mudguard transfer's, the tank is norton, in gold?? The mudguard is norton made in England ??

Is that correct? Can any one supply photographs of the decals and position on the tank

Thanks

Nick C

hi nick,im sure that the mudguard transfer is the square one with the n outline with the number 7,and below the number is 500c.c.i could be wrong having my assumptions being that i copied the 55 model7 in the bike museum.looking at the transfers available on the websites it confirms the correct one is fitted.again i could be wrong and have asked the question on the model7 website.the tank transfer is the one previously mentioned by myself, les

I see in the parts book these transfers are listed- A2/866, A2/867, A2/868 & A/869, can anybody identify these for me and advise if they are available anywhere? possibly under a later number?

Thanks Al

Hi.

A2/859 is probably a small Norton logo. This is listed as for all models up to a least 1956. By the time you reach 1959 only A2/867 oil bath transfer is still listed. The rear mudguard transfers all have separate (new) part numbers for each model for 59. The Norton logo transfers are available from Paul Norman - see my link in the post 'Mudguard transfers' in 'Singles'.

Ian.

These are Incorrect there the Norton motorcycle 961 Logos and NOT Bracebridge street design logos I have them made to Bracebridge Street designs ,

Sorry Anna, your wrong on this one. These are for earlier Nortons than you are familliar with, absolutely not even close to the 961. Have a look at the previously included website. These were made from an original & are exactly correct for the era they were used in.

Hi.

Just to confirm that this scriptwas used in the fifties, there are 3 period photo's in Mick Woollett's book 'Norton' showing the 1953 & 1954 works' racers with this script on their oil tanks (pages 245, 247 & 249).
