Andrew's CS1 Norton





This is Andrew's 1928 CS1 Norton. He bought it 7 years ago and it took him 6 years to restore; it had been raced in the early 60s and had had a hard life, losing many of the original bits. Fortunately it retained it's original frame, engine and gearbox.

Andrew fabricated most of the missing parts himself, including the handle bars, leavers, foot brake, rockers, positive stop gear change mechanism, foot rests, stand, tank caps, mudguard stays, saddle frame, the twin float bowls, Brooklands can and all nuts and bolts. More to follow!
