I presume you are referring to the handle fixed to the rear of your mudguard with two bolts and extending under the seat. If that is what you are referring to, it's not, because I have two of those, one on each side.

The photograph I posted does not give any indication of size or proportion. The part is much smaller that the two handles I have , only about 8 inches in length.

The part I have went for stove enamelling with the frame all the other dismantled parts some years ago and I simply cannot remember where it was fitted.

Richard , your mystery handle resembles one fitted as an aid to lifting the bike onto it's center stand, not a Norton but a BSA ,as I recall.

I think you're correct Jim - Same as on my 1960 A7. The Wideline Norton item was used to hold the rear mudguard and lift it on to the stand. It is three times the length of th item in the image.
