Nortons motorcycle
Find the right Norton motorcycle for your next adventure. If motorcycle names count for anything, the Norton Manx, International, Dominator and Commando are among the coolest in history. Fortunately, they also happened to be great machines. Based at the regal Donington Hall, Norton is reemerging with three dramatically styled new streetbikes — fully modern, of course, but aesthetically patterned after the s Commando roadster, and also including a few design cues from the old GP Manxes.
Start of production for US-bound Commandos was scheduled for October Cycle World's motorcycle buyers guide is built to help you find the right bike. Compare sportbikes, cruisers, standard bikes, touring, adventure, off-road, and electric by year or engine size.

I have a Atlas motor that needs the top end reinstalled fresh bore. Top end gasket kit included, Norton Transmission Primary with clutch basket. You have a mix of older N15 parts front end, N15 frame modified and '67 title and later Commando engine parts. For example the clutch cylinder, barrel, carbs and motor mount are Commando which was first introduced to the US in This obviously needs complete rebuilding.
Or, it may be best suited for parts, you be the judge. First the good. No apparent cracks or missing fins on the outside of the head, cylinders or cases. Inside has some surface rust on the cam but the bottom end has oil on everything. Engine spins freely. Trans shifts smoothly. Next the not so good. Top frame rails removed, as happened back in the day, for a different tank.
Nevertheless the frame appears straight to my eye. Wheels are rusted to the point of being good for hubs only. Not sure if the front end is a Roadholder. Long crack in the left slider and one fork leg buggered at the top. Only appears to be single leading shoe. Rear wheel fits into the frame. Cylinders probably need sleeves.
The other frame in the back of one picture is not included and will be listed separately. Basically I'm asking for what a relatively complete engine with magneto, a transmission, and assorted parts are worth. I have no title. Vin is 20 Matching frame and engine 's. I can load it onto a 4x5 pallet and strap it down but I assume no responsibility for its safe delivery.
There are undoubtedly assorted pieces missing. I would rather not ship internationally because of past hassles. No offense to int'l buyers intended. Amazing find. One one the most beautiful modern classics we have seen. The original Norton Commando first saw the light of day all the way back in Norton Motorcycles re - introduces us to the Commando with the MK II family that brings classic, British style and modern engineering together. Air-cooling precludes the need for a radiator, and so the front of the frame is wide open with an unimpeded view of the engine.

He purchased it from a family friend who I am still in contact with. My understanding is that this thing is original with the exception on tires, battery, and oil breather lines. Does start and run but has poor compression.
Has tools, owner manual and service manual. I would like to find a good home for this motorcycle. Someone that isn't going to change everything out on it. Model Dominator. Powered by a fairly conventional for Norton looking cc parallel twin cylinder motor, cooled by the flow of air and oil and fueled by modern EFI Electronic Fuel Injection and perhaps most importantly spinning a superbly designed counter balancer shaft, this is the motor taking Norton into the modern world, and smoothly at that.
All those stories of vintage Nortons with motor vibration capable of breaking fillings loose from your teeth, those are stories for old timers, anyone trying out the newest series of bikes will be rather impressed by the smoothness, not only the power and torque. To keep the look appropriate for the modern classic class of bikes the EFI is well hidden and it takes more than a cursory glance to even spot the lack of old-school carburetors mixing the fuel and air that will propel your ride!
