IGNORE THE EBAY SHIPPING STUFF. I WILL SEND THIS ANYWHERE . Here is a great start for a cool bike. Frame and engine are both 1951 although not matching. I bought the frame from Norton guru Jerry Ficklin. Tank mounts are shaved but the rear is there and can be put back. Frame is otherwise superb although not correct for a 51 Inter as these were housed in the garden gate. The rigid should give better handling . Jerry sent a template for engine plates which is also included. Lay down box looks good but I have not taken it apart. The engine is superb with the exception it will need a rebore or a sleeve.It is near 100% complete. Good threads and no broken fins. The rare RN racing carb is incomplete . The magneto is the desirable BTH TT model and looks superb. The tank is a genuine pre war racing scalloped or "pie crust" job and is also in superb shape and no I will not sell it separately ! Other parts and bikes are available . I can send this project in pieces via Xpresspost to anywhere in the continental USA for $800. I have done it several times and there have been no issues. Check my feedback and bid with confidence . Thanks for looking. Call me at 613-273-5036 or shoot me an email with your questions and complaints. oldmill@kingston.net.
