The Museum is hosting an auction of 175 bikes by H&H on Saturday 19th December. Most are private entries, but some are NMM bikes, duplicates etc. Theres even a Sinclair C5 for the dedicated collector!

I still have the pair of Dunstall Decibel silencers that I bought way back in the 70's. One's not too bad, but the other has quite a few places where the chrome has been scraped, is peeling around the exit, and generaly in a poor state.

hello what is dimension on tap in lockheed caliper from hose?

Theres a 1964 Electra on ebay right now, asking £3,000! no bids, no wonder. Looks to be all there, but rough paint, no chromeware, broken headlight etc

Hi Nortoneers

Wondered if anyone has experience of using a workshop oil pressure gauge, on your Norton.

IE: mounting the gauge temporarily [with least vibration].

What readings and conclusions have you reached?

Well it's official now, the 961 Commando range has 2021 as a year of grace before it's forced to  permanently hang up it's boots (tyres?).

A half-hour video interview by Bennetts with the new boss at Norton, outlining some of the plans that TVS have for the future of Norton bikes- and racing! Well worth watching for any NOCCER.

thanks

New to Norton - help please! Firstly apologies if this is covered elsewhere, but I have searched and am new to this site and the club.

Further to recent posts on oil supply matters I am thinking I would like oil gauge and an electronic rev counter on the 99. Both would need to be small ,say 50 mm Max  and  with the RC a range up to say around 7000 .
