Illustrated Norton Buyer's Guide: Model-By-Model Analysis of Post War Singles, Twins, Rotaries and Specials (Illustrated Buyer's Guide)

The postwar range of Norton motorcycles had many links with the firm's successful road racing past. The company built on this as it moved from the well-loved singles, the Manx and 16H, the International and ES2, on to its lines of twins. At one time, the Norton was always seen as a single, but this changed as the Dominator twin was joined by the Featherbed and Jubilee models. Later came the Manxman, Atlas and Commando and, finally, rotary power. Nortons are one of the best-lived marques of the classic machine revival of the 1980s. All are included here and described in turn with data on numbering, finish, dating and buying for investment and riding. Unique identity charts help pinpoint the rights and wrongs of any model being viewed - an essential when buying.
