Hi,
 A novice to all this Norton stuff . Can anyone tell me if the cambox pick attached is for a 350 or 500 engine please. Have a 350 engine with no cambox and found this in a box but have no idea if it is for a 350 engine.

1957 Model 50.  Trying to remove the pinion gear in the timing case. Is there a special tool to accomplish this task?

Ive just purchased a second hand Fastback seat and will recover it as part of my Commando rebuild project.

What`s the point / reason for the `Paper washers` that are fitted in Norton Roadholder forks ? I see them on all spares lists but have never come across any when I have stripped forks to service them .

Can someone confirm something that has confused me with the horn button switch?
I'm re-wiring my Mk.3 and have stripped & cleaned all the handlebar switchgear.

Hello Norton Enthusiasts

Hello....

I've decided to try 00 grease in my Dollshead. I know a number of riders use it or similar. My question, how much, In volume or weight do you use?

I've recently acquired an ES2 as a project to complete. 

I have struggled to find a diagram to help me re-assemble the primary drive - which had been assembled using washers as spacers - leaving the inner primary case on the piss.

Well I finally got to take the Navigator out for it's first run in about 50 years. Really enjoyed it.  Cert different.

Me again ! This is a simple question .. Should the Layshaft 3rd gear be 20T or 21T  on a standard Dommi AMC box ? Mine has a 21T whilst everything else i`ve read or seen says it should be 20T. ( The Main shaft it runs with is 21T )  ?

TVS Motor Company has confirmed the worldwide launch of four all-new models by the summer of 2026.

I stripped down my Dommi AMC gearbox as I couldn`t trust the person who apparently `rebuilt it ` and true to form immediately found a broken Kickstart return spring ! On continuing I noticed some worn `Dogs` on Main shaft 2nd and 3rd gear cogs.

Hi all,

Hi Guys, I intend to fit a pair of Premiers to my Mk.3 but not sure on jetting. 

Hello, I have 1967 N15CS gearbox number NA15221. I believe it has the correct inner cover with the kickstart spring looped round a steel boss but an incorrect outer, cast part number 06 0722.

Just acquired a model 50 but has no baffles in original silencer, so window-rattling loud.

Anyone got a diagram showing shape and size of the baffles?

Just had an item pop up on my phone from MCN- the Bantam is back! Well almost. Mahindra group in India has a subsidiary, Classic legends Pvt.

Hi,
1969 Commando. New clutch cable end nipple is too small to fit the clutch lever. Is there any adaptor or sleeve I can buy. Don't really want to junk the cable.

Thx

Just spotted this item on the Daily Telegraph website.
"New British cars will have to be fitted with breathalyser technology and black box-style recorders under Labour plans to align with EU vehicle safety laws.

My ES2 has done 300 miles of running in miles since restoration was completed.  It will happily cruise at up to 60 mph on the flat, but then I tried to overtake a slower bike and it started to misfire.

I've been getting used to a certain amount of fuel coming out from under the CEANDESS filler cap.  Generally attracting road grime and making the tank look untidy - no big deal - 'they all do that sir'.

Taken the clutch apart on my 1960 99 due to it slipping, Couple of buckled plain plates and deformed friction material on a couple of friction plates. These are being renewed.

Am new to noc. I have one of the troublesome donnington 961,s
I have heard that Motorvated ltd is the place to take them for repair. 

OK, have fitted the rejuvenated pawls with hardened and ground dowel pins, new ratchet, sprocket and wavy washer (quite cheap from NOC shop) and screwed it all back together.

Grease or oil for the speedo drive?

I have made a schoolboy error and not taken enough pics when I started the job.  When refitting the front hub bearing retaining ring should it end up flush with the housing?  When I refit it I have 2/3 threads still showing. 

I have manufactured a number of the Rotary Classic Rear Light Lenses. These are 3D Printed in Translucent PETG, the colours are not perfect so it is recommended that coloured bulbs are used to make the colours better.

Since I rarely ride two up and we don't have any hills over here, I'd like to change the gearing of the Model 50 slightly.

What ho all,
                  I just tried the Peter James insurance for a quote - £148. I tried MCN - £60 ????????

Trying to work out why one slide is sticky at the bottom of its travel.  After lots of swapping parts in and out, including parts from an old carb, it turns out that the aperture in the throttle slide is slightly too tight for the choke slide to r
