Hi All

where can I get new sprockets for my 1929 model 18 Norton....I want to replace all the Drive Sprockets so they're all new and pointy...so that's the

The pedal I thought would work on my bike I now see is not the correct version, wrong offset and length of the lever end to the rod.

The solenoid on my electra has two large posts for the large black wires from the starter and to the battery.

Hi all -

Putting order together - have parts list/ manual but not clear on drawings - do I need 3 thick and 3 thin rubbers for rear wheel ?

I have had Nortons for over 50 years but never managed to find a grease gun that fits the nipples on a Dommy. Its time I solved that issue. What am I missing?.

... now seems to be "Oldest" - sorts in reverse direction so the one at the top is from 2016......

Can the ATD unit be removed from the rear of the magneto without disturbing the timing gear which is mounted directly behind it ? Will slackening off the central hex head bolt enable the ATD only to be removed ?

Hi All,

This is the first time I have worked on a commando engine and just needed to replace the gasket to stop a leak from the timing cover.

I understand that this was quite common, but, I can't seem to find a post by anyone who has done it.  Would there be a need to change ignition, valve timing, or carburettor settings?

Hello All,

Hello All,

I am looking for dynamo drive parts:

drive pinion - it's 23 tooth, 1 7/16" diameter, 9/16" wide

the three mounting nuts, a sort of extended cheese-head. 

Does anyone know what the thread is on the three mounting studs?

Being new to the Norton marque I have to ask perhaps a somewhat naive question concerning the Lucas auto magneto.

I'm back for more on plunger Model 7 which came as a basket case

I have original oil tank which has suction and return with connections to crankcase is fine.

Can anyone recommend a supplier for the copper washers , especially the sump plug in the uk

The good book states: "the races are a push fit in the frame and my readily be knocked out". Yeah right!  Mine appear to be a very interference fit. I've removed the grease nipples and tried to drift them out with a small bolt through the hole.

I am trying to locate a 1955 Norton Dominator, registration “OOW 536” that once belonged to my Dad around 40 years ago.

Hi all,

My resto continues at speed - I've just started on the primary drive with an RGM belt drive kit.

I did not remove the original primary, so don't have the advantage of how it all came apart - rather a box of various bits.

I know it's a subjective issue but....

Doing bottoms up restoration on '50 Model 7 and wondering if authentic black would have been gloss or semi-gloss.

Gloss is pretty flashy but is it correct for the vintage years?

The light switch on my 1957 ES2 has been playing up for ages.  I ran into thick fog a couple of weeks ago but it would not give me a headlight.  It appears to be a 3 position switch: sidelights, headlights and off in the middle.

I'm about to drop the forks out of my '55 ES2. The good book states that all the cable connections (clutch, brake, throttle, adv/ret lever and exhaust lifter) to the h/bars should be removed prior to removing the bars.

Not sure if this a new issue.

I have rebuilt a 1963 650SS with two new Amal Monobloc 376 carbs with no air slides fitted. However, I can't start it.  It will fire occasionally and kick back but that's all.  I will recheck the timing. 

My computer this morning flashed me up an alert from Companies House;  seemingly Norton Motorcycles UK Limited are again overdue in filing their Annual Accounts.  These were due not later than 31st December 2018 and are still listed as overdue- so

Hi

I'm thinking of changing the lights on my '71 fastback to LED's changed the headlamp to a H4 halogen a few years ago, can anyone recommend a type, manufacturer or supplier both the headlight and the rear stop and taillight.

My Electra Parts List includes an 'O'ring  Footchange ratchet shaft 'O' ring,which isn't shown on Plate G the exploded drawing of the gearbox.Am I right in assuming that it fits between item 34 the return spring distance piece and the outer cover?

Can someone confirm Moto bat MB9U is the correct upgrade for my  74 Mk 2a?  Last gell  battery I tried was a Harley item and was just wide enough to fit ,so of course it rubbed a hole  , and the last lead /acid item  (yb14la2) was too tall and awk
