Hi all

Im in the final stages of my Slimline Dominator restoration. She is the Green and Dove Grey.

Request of advice in adding a sidecar to a P-11A

Hi,
Have new steel tank and fibreglass side panels and want to refinish them in the original light blue metalflake colour for my 69 S code (as per example)

I took my wife to the museum on Monday 2nd Jan as a special treat!  (No - REALLY!)  She loved it as always and, after our tour, enjoyed reminiscing with the staff about her Dad 's bikes in the 1950s.

This maybe a cunning plan or just plain wrong, but here goes.  I had my electronic   ignition blow up on me this last summer and this led to an awful lot setting the white dots through the rotor in the old points position, checking  for 28 B.T.D.C

There was an anomaly with the 2021 Club Accounts which needed clarifying. Hence the enclosed should sort this.

Hello all - I've just bought a '63 650 SS with several 'rider mods' already in place (including a 12 volt conversion - no Mag, an as yet unidentified electronic ignition and a RGM belt drive primary ) Apart from this the electrics are unknown to m

I'm restoring a 1973 850 Interstate.

The leads down to the Zener diode have melted and I'm planning to ft a Swiss 790 (Royal Enfiel) regulator rectifier in place of the original Zener diode and rectifier set-up.

Background: My 1967 650ss was produced in April of 1966 and subsequently imported to Berliner in US. I bought it from the late Morrie Gauger in 1986.

Hi I’ve just joined the Norton owners club as I’ve bought this Jubilee  and I was hoping for some help to get it running and eventually looking a bit tidier, It’s got good compression so not seized up.

I noticed a few items I purchased are listed as copper/asbestos I’m presuming that they are not asbestos, but a modern replacement?

I have bought an Atlas engine  ( I think ) with a head that I can't identify.

It has 32mm inlet tracks. with !.5" valves

Rocker oil feed is on the side of the head.

Hello all, new to the site, but with a long passionate history for Nortons, along with other old bikes. 

I have a Norton 650SS with Dunstall exhaust fitted

I have all the parts to fit forward foot rests connected through the Primary chain case cover

Hi all, advice please. I have not ridden my 1960 Dominator 99 for a couple of months but have started her regularly. I was going for a ride today but the clutch would not work.

Hi,

Does anyone recognise the fork conversion on my 850 Mk2A commando.

The fork top nuts have a removable centre, which exposes what appears to be an adjustment screw - presumeably for damping.

I'm confused about how to set the auto advance unit on my Electra project.  I would assume it has to be positioned correctly on the camshaft, but I can find no information on how to set it up.  Anyone able to help?

Thank,

Hi,

Hi  guys

I'm just stripping an 850 mk3 motor for rebuild. I have found it is fitted with these pistons. They are 79mm and forged. There are no markings at all.

Hi guys

Now got a tank and R/H panel, still looking for the L/H mk3 panel in steel

cheers

Hi All, I have a 1975 Commando MK3 with a primary drive belt conversion. The current belt is a Medway Power Transmission type HTD 880-8M-50 and shows signs of a wear on one edge.
