This Item listing is for the very distinctive conical shaped, knurled, gearbox clutch cable adjustment bolt and locknut - both CNC manufactured as faithful replica of the original Norton Item.  Extremely useful for adjusting your cluth lever while sat on the bike, and normally the knurl has long since disappeared on original bolts.  Manufactured in brass then nickel plateed as per the original.  See listing detail for more information.  Price is for bolt and matching locknut.

This Item listing is for a 'lightened' version of the very distinctive conical shaped, knurled, gearbox clutch cable adjustment bolt and locknut. Similar to the normal road version - this version also has 6 holes bored radially around the conical part to reduce weight.  Probably not original Norton practice, but as the original adjuster was quite heavy - a likely mod that will add 'bling' to your M30/M40 or Manx, while still allowing the benefits of this useful adjuster.  See listing detail for more information.  Price is for bolt and matching locknut.
