Nortons - General

There are a number of modifications to the clutch pushrod mechanism to prevent oil coming from the gearbox into the clutch basket. As my commando is standard, the clutch runs in oil anyway.
so my questions are.

Paywalled, I'm afraid:

Hi all,

Hi - is there anyone in Hampshire, Dorset or Sussex who would kindly lend me this tool (ET2003, NOC part number 067524).  I'm desperate!   Thanks

Can anyone recommend a good petrol tap for my slimline ES2. There is very little room between the tap and frame top tube and frustrated fitting taps that leak.

Many thanks 

I'm having problems selecting gears , and the box sometimes gets stuck in gear .
Stripping down reveals the selector rod shaft loose in the thread at the back of the main case .

This is a serious question. Apart from the new Nortons (both Garner era and TVS) the vast majority of Nortons on the roads are not required to pass an MOT. This does not mean a free pass to ride around on a bike that has obvious defects.

As always, I find myself doubting my judgement.

Hello All,

I was idly scanning my bookmarks and came across it again. It's a cornucopia of excellent information on all sorts, written and maintained by a bloke who was in the motorcycle trade in the USA for many years.
