PLEASE SCROLL DOWN THE PAGES……………….

This web site is dedicated to all motorcyclists who are interested in NORTON SINGLE CYLINDER motorcycles. I have been riding, racing and repairing these unapproachable machines for the past twenty years, while practising as a trick-cyclist, and I am now available to provide a service to genuine enthusiasts who share my passion. I am not a commercial enterprise. I work on my own and this obsession with old Norton motorcycles is my life long hobby. Please note that I do not work with twin cylinder machines, such as the Dommie and Commando; for Twins visit www.noc.co.uk

My main interest is with racing machines…..flat tank racers of the twenties, Internationals from the thirties and the Manx from the fifties and early sixties and NEW ONES!

"Our services are, however, at all times available to give any information that may be required which will facilitate obtaining the maximum efficiency, and we invite Norton riders to enlist our aid whenever in doubt; our services will be freely and willingly placed at their disposal".

This is an extract from the Norton maintenance manual of 1924 and it sums up both the philosophy of those pioneers at Bracebridge Street, now sadly gone, and myself, still joyfully going!!

E-Mail Me Now!

PLEASE NOTE…WHEN SENDING PICTURES DO NOT MAKE THEM ANY BIGGER THAN 250 kB and if you do not get a reply to an e-mail enquiry it will be because:

· Occasionally I get a "failed mail" message after I have sent you a reply but for some reason you are unable to receive.

· You have written about twin cylinder machines………no interest and no knowledge. I would, however like a circa 1907 peugot engined machine, like Rem Fowlers.

· Your letter does not make sense.

· I have not had the time to reply.

· I am not replying to some mail……….it is immediately trashed.

· Disclaimer: please note that any parts or advice given by me is accepted on the condition that you are unable to make any sort of claim against me. So if any of you have a tendency towards litigation, just remember that as a practising psychiatrist my speciality is medico-legal cases!
