For years now we, who have Norton's future at heart, have been longing for someone to pick up the gauntlett, now we have its seems we are knocking it for all its worth. Obviouly I feel sorry for unhappy and out f pocket owners.

Hi,

Does anybody know where I can get exhaust clamp rings for 1930-1934 singles. I have a 1930 model 18 and a 1934 model 20 head that I need new rings for, this is the female type thread.

The ones I have are in poor condition.

Thanks,

Thank you,regards,Francis

Have had a good look through the Forum and read a number of books on the subject. I have my engine in many bits at the moment (52 ES2) so is the ideal opportunity to do something about it if need be.

Has anyone had a good experience with the positive earth unit?, no luck with mine and can't immagine how it can power a coil with no dwell time.
