- Woven cloth HT lead of the type originally used on many competition and roadgoing motorcycles from the early 1920's through to the 1940's.  Ochre/Orange in colour with black flecks - this HT lead is sheathed in a durable and waterproof covering that gives a very authentic look - as per the celluloid covering of the original period HT lead.  Price is per foot

This listing offers a small selection of 18mm Spark Plugs suitable for those older models fitted with an 18mm Spark Plug thread in their cylinder head i.e. Norton 1920's models, WD 16H models and Douglas 2 3/4hp models.  Please read the detail listing carefully - as some 'Long Reach' types are no longer available, and alternatives are also listed.  This is a multiple listing item, also offering original type 'crushable copper' washers for both 14mm and 18mm spark plugs.

Good quality gearchange rubber - of type used in the 1950's. 

This item is for good quality chromed 1.0" diameter handlebars which are of an upright road model type - that is similr to the profile used on Norton roadgoing models from mid to the late 1930's.  Addtiionally, when reversed and turned upside down - their profile is not that far removed from the 1" competition types (i.e. pre-War Manx) we have manufactured in the past, and may also be considered for this purpose.  1" Handlebars are very difficult to find and these are nice quality chrome and come with black nylon plugs either end.  See detail listing for more information.  Price is per pair.

This item is for a full set of relacement springs to fit the Norton 'Gardengate' (1938-54) Plunger frame rear plunger units.  They are UK manufactured for us by a specialist spring manufacturer, using a set of genuine original Norton plungers springs as the template.  Price is for a set of 4 springs

This item is for a pair of the correct shape and profile, alloy plugs that were fitted into the top of the rear Plunger spindles that were fitted to all Norton Gardengate frames - from 1939 to the early 1950's.  Original plugs are often badly damaged, broken off or have just come out making the top of the plunger suspension area look messy.  These plugs are CNC manufactured to be lightly tapped into the original spindle holes and will greatly improve the appearance of the rear end, where they sit quite prominently.  The plug heads are lightly linished and polished.  Price is per pair of plugs 

This item is for a pair of complete rear wheel adjuster assemblies - with all parts patterned as per the original items, to fit Gardengate Plunger Norton Models (singles and twins).  It consists of two fabricated wheel spindle holders (that wrap around the alloy plunger castings), two distinctive square head bolts - of the correct profile, two dished plates, two washers and four adjuster bolts - the locknuts being a smaller spanner sise than the main nuts - all as per the original Norton design.  The fabricated spindle holders are in nickel plated steel, while all the other parts are CNC manufactured in stainless steel.  Price is for two complete assemblies (i.e. enough for one bike).  See Detail listing for more information

This item is for a pair of the distinctive dished caps that were fitted to the rear of all Norton Gardengate Plunger suspension castings (i..e plunger frames manufactured from 1939 to the early 1950's on all models), and fitted over the alloy castings, allowing for adjustment of the rear chain adjuster.  These items are copied from an original pattern and are CNC manufactured in stainless steel, so will not rust and look very pretty.  Price is for a pair of the caps

This item listing is for a pair of the distinctive square headed rear wheel adjustment bolts, adjustment nuts and locknuts, to fit Gardengate Plunger Norton Models. The 'Gardengate' was the plunger type spring frame that Norton adopted for all sprung models from 1939, through to the early 1950's an was offered for OHV and SOHC roadgoing singles, pre-Featherbed (Dominator) twins and the racing model Manx Nortons from 1939-50.  All parts CNC made in stainless steel with correct BSC threads.  See detail isting for more information 

This item is for 4 of the correct profile and spanner size 5/16"nuts to fit the original Gardengate Plunger rear wheel adjusters, CNC manufactured in stainless steel.  The main adjuster nuts are double chamfered and deeper than commercially available nuts, while the adjuster nuts are 'reduced head', i.e. a smaller spanner size than normal 5/16" nuts, to allow for easier adjustment - both types being replicated from the original Norton nuts.  Price is for 4 nuts. 

This item is for a pair of the correct, original Norton pattern, bolts and extra heavy washers that were fitted to the bottom of plunger spindles to Norton Gargengate type (plunger) frames.  The set consists of 2 CNC manufactured bolts, 2 washers in stainless steel and are identical in pattern to originals.  See detail listing for more information 

This item is for a pair of the extra thick washers that were fitted under the head of the plunger spindle bolt on Norton Gardengate plunger frames.  They were made extremely thick, so when the bolt was tightened, it would pull the plunger spindle taper into the bottom frame casting without bending.  These are as per the originals in thickness, but in stainless steel so will not rust.  Price is per pair. 

This listing is for a complete headrace bearing set, to fit those Norton models fitted with Norton girder forks - from approximately 1931 to those still being supplied with girder forks in 1946. The set consists of 4 hardened headrace bearings and two sets of ball bearings.

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.

Proper felt wheel bearing washers, as was original fitment on both sides of all Norton rigid,plunger and swinging arm hubs from the early 1930's through to the 1960's (except conical brake side for some reason).  UK manufactured

This is the distinctive steel cup, which is pressed into the end of both front and rear Norton hubs on the brake side, and retains the felt washer, to stop grease escaping into the brake drum. This version is identical to the original Norton version (one of which was used as the template for these), and is useful, as originals often get bent and distorted as part of fitting new wheel bearings

This distinctive shaped press steel wheel bearing dust cover is the one commonly fitted to 'cotton reel' type hubs - i.e. pre plunger (i.e rigid frame) rear hubs and those front hubs that had the 'bolt on' brake drum on all Norton models - it being slightly conical in shape.  Fitted to most pre-war OHV/CS1 and SV models, including WD models.

This steel fine-threaded ring with 4 distinctive holes (to allow the ring to be rotated and locked) was fitted to the none-brake side of Norton hubs on all models from the 1930's through to the late 1950's, to retain the wheel bearing.  It is normal when trying to remove an original ring, to find that the small holes have been badly chewed, because a punch has been used to lock them in the past, so finding good ones is now difficult.  These rings are CNC machined, an original Norton ring having been used as the pattern.  See detail listing for more information.  Price is each.  

This distinctive shaped press steel wheel bearing dust cover is the one commonly fitted to 'cotton reel' type hubs - i.e. pre plunger (i.e rigid frame) rear hubs and those front hubs that had the 'bolt on' brake drum on all Norton models - it being slightly conical in shape.  This type is in semi-polished stainless steel

This is the distinctive (and now very difficult to find) front wheel bearing dust cover, which was fitted to most Norton single sided hubs through the 1930's to early 1960's.  This version dull blasted stainless steel - to give it the look of the original dull nickel plating 

This is the distinctive (and now very difficult to find) front wheel bearing dust cover, which was fitted to most Norton single sided hubs through the 1930's to early 1960's.  It has serrated tangs (which are normally broken on originals) and is an exact copy of the original item.  This version is in semi-polished stainless steel, rather than the original dull finish
