Just done a deal on a 40M. I don't doubt it's genuine as it has only had a few owners and the last one since the early 70's. Last raced / run in 1980. Never pulled to bits and well known in Norton / old bike circles.

Well,I have been tied up , (metaphorically speaking), getting my stuff back from a guy , who had my stuff for various time periods from September 2015 to last week, but importantly over the past 9 months he had a substantial amount of my property,

Hi all

Hi guys - if I fit a sealed main shaft bearing does that mean I can do away with the sealing washer between the gear and the bearing?

Can anyone help, please? I'm trying to find out how many mm BTDC I need to set my engine to get the timing right. I don't want to take the primary chaincase off (again!) as I have just managed to stop it leaking.

Many thanks for the replies. I had looked through the Mk3 wiring diagram for the fuse symbols prior to the post, but of course nothing to be seen.

My 1952 ES2 is fitted with a 4.00 x 19 rear tyre (Mitas) which is too big in section and in danger of ripping itself to bits on the mudguard bolts. A shame as it's virtually new (fitted by previous owner but clearly not run much if at all).
