LLUSTRATED NORTON BUYER’S GUIDE
WRITTEN BY ROY BACON

Published in 1991

Model-by-model analysis of postwar singles, twins, rotaries and specials.

The postwar range of Norton motorcycles had many links with the firm’s succesful 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 line 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.
