This is my Norvin I have owned for the last 10 years and have a detailed and photo account of the rebuild. I have commissioned for the road in 2013 and has been ridden on classic bike runs and meetings over the last year and has been a delight to ride if a little high geared but happy to encounter the Brooklands hill climb. Also won a Concours d Elegance award win for the Best Norton Special also at Brooklands. Initially It had an MOT but as dated 1958 it no longer requires oneand the tax is free after the 10 months remaining. This is a rare opportunity to own a tuned Comet engined Norvin actually on the road or in the Museums. Borrani rims with Dunlop TT 100 tyres. Ported head with 9-1 piston. Alfa big end. New main bearings. Gary Robinson profiled cam. rebuilt MA G15 gearbox. anx alloy fuel tank. 12 volt electrics. Dating letter From NOC indicating the 1952 Vincent Engine with the 1958 Norton frame. Re-registered with age related number. I will require a Paypal deposit at end of auction and cash or bank transfer on collection. Viewing welcome.
