Norton Model 7 wheel offsets

Forums

Hi,

Recently got a model 7 1949 plunger frame in bits with no wheels, just the hubs.

Does anyone know if the wheels should have an offset or not.

Regards.

I have 1950 Model 7 plunger and both front and back have offsets and best info I have is;.

     Front wheel is 10mm across drum to edge of rim (wm2 rim)

     Rear wheel again 50mm across hub to edge of rim (wm2 rim)

I downloaded Shop and Parts manuals from site below but no mention of offsets

   http://manuals.classic-motorbikes.net/

I had to completely rebuild front and rear hubs and was a challenge finding missing pieces.

Good luck and ask if you have problems I may be able to provide a 'workaround'.

Peter
