the monoblock that came with my box of bits jubilee was off a C15 and knackered so I bought a concentric from surrey cycles, they estimated what the getting should be.

My 40M was dispatched from factory 24/3 1959 to Bob Keeler.

In late -61 or early -62 it was sold by Geoff Tanner to Swedish rider Jackie Lindh. After that it's history is known. Anybody have a clue of what it did in the UK?

One of the two Fwd tank attachment stud holes requires Helicoil repair.

Q. Is there enough "meat" to go oversize with Helicoil. Stud size now 5/16 UNF 24TPI. I would hate to break through into the tank fuel area!

My 1962 "99" has a slight oil leak on the cylinder head above the head-barrel joint, so it's not likely that the leak is not coming from the head-barrel joint. There is no signs of it appearing from the rocker box.

Does anyone know of a thinner for Hylomar? I have half a tub that is difficult to spread but it is too much to throw away.

I have just had a rebore and replaced my std pistons with a pair of +30s, weight difference is 11gms per piston (22gms total). Do I need to get the cranks rebalanced, ignore the difference or remove 11gms per piston?

can anyone recommend a sealant that works with modern petrol.

I have seen a few for sale.

One called [SLUSH] and another called [PO15] and not sure which one to us.

I'm looking for a petrol tank strap fixing bolt which goes through a roller trunnion at the rear of the petrol tank strap. I believe Norton called it a 'petrol tank roller fixing bolt' Part No. 17013.

Hi, I have purchased some mudguard stays for my Atlas which is being returned to a full mudguard after many years of a skinny fibreglass one so I don't have original parts with which to compare.

Last week a friend of mine bought a rather tatty 1960 wideline chassis with Manx engine in it. He only bought it for the engine so to cut a long story short, I made him an offer and now have a 1960 Model 50 rolling chassis sitting in the garrage.

I have been very lucky to have inherited my late Godfatherâs 1957, Model 30 Norton International, however I would really like to learn all about the Nortonâs History.

Does anyone know what thread these are? That is to say the male thread that screws into the case. The closest I can get is 26tpi which I guess makes it Cycle? But the thread on mine is pretty poor and it's difficult to tell.

I am being lazy with this question as I do not want to remove my chain yet due to a bad back!!

Can anyone advise how many links the chain has? I think it is 97 but am unsure if this is with or without the connecting link.

Hi all,

Attached a picture which shows a protrusion of the piston at TDC. This because the cylinder had a sleeve too wide, making the lower cylinder wall nearly dissapearing.

I'm looking for a new tank can anyone recommend a vendor.

It's for a 850 roadster

Looked at the ebay ones and through the search site,but still undecided.

I often look at the Nortons for sale on eBay. Just being curious/nosey. But it is nothing like as interesting now as it was a few years ago.
