I have only just become aware of this action.   Rather than support this action by buying spares I would Mothball the bike and turn to another make. I would hope that the parts distributors who buy from ANIL  would  talk some sense into them.

Hi I’m having a bit of trouble removing the crankshaft half pinion on my ‘52 Dommie 7.  I can’t get a gear puller on it due to the inset into the case.

Has anyone got any recommended contacts for a reliable outfit for chroming and painting Norton parts in the NW of England? Live near Blackpool but don't mind travelling a bit.   

Not sure if this will be of use to anyone...

Looking for a supplier of brake/clutch cable as per the picture, cloth type with red spiral stripe.

I have completely stripped (every part taken out and separated) my 1961 ES2  (Featherbed Frame). Every part repainted, plated or chromed.

The oil pumps on offer from Andover Norton are the Commando pump.  It's the same as a Dominator one, but different.  The pressure and scavenge gears are wider (not sure how much by) - so how does that affect oil pressure, especially hot, and the s

If anyone cares I'll jump in here......

If you ask me I liked the "old" site better.

This new site is waaaayyyy to busy with too many choices, etc.

I am not sure why the change was made.

I bought a Jubilee in bits 18 months ago. The bike had lots of parts missing e.g. seat, all of the tin ware, headlamp, mudguards, exhausts and downpipes, toolbox, etc. Even one piston was missing.

Generally speaking it looks good and dare I say quite modern. Everything seems to work as advertised. Nice and simple/intuitive to use and generally a good job well done. Only time will tell if it goes down well.

I got home from the Oxford branch meeting to watch my recording.

I thought it was OK. He covered most of the important events and bikes in the 50 minutes time he had.

I was about to put the cylinders back on my 71 roadster and noticed these screws had been safety wired (see attached). Was this done at the factory? It's not a problem, I'm just curious.

Guys, Stripping a 650SS frame for powder coating but can't get the swinging arm spindle out so I can seaprate the swinging arm from the frame. Is this common?
