I've
owned this bike since 2007. Bought it
with 14,400 miles the odometer - now at 28,400. It's been an amazing ride these
past 14,000 miles. This bike rides and handles like a dream. It's had all key
upgrades and meticulous maintenance over the years. Pictures below were taken
today (July 13). Note: this is not a
“barn find” that would need another $5K-$7K to bring up to snuff. All of that investment of time and money is already done and road-tested. Appearance and styling: - Peashooter mufflers with adapter mounting kit from OldBritts - Euro-style bars (shorter and lower than stock) - Corbin Gunfighter seat - Rear sets - Hagon shocks - New chrome headlight holders - New front fender Electrical: - Starter motor upgraded to 4-brush - Heavy duty starter / battery cables - High-output 3-phase alternator - Podtronics regulator/rectifier - Power Arc electronic ignition and dual fire coil - Shorai lithium iron battery - 5K ohm spark plug wires/caps Engine and Drive train: - New gearbox main shaft bearing, misc. seals and overhaul - Recent new chain - Replaced layshaft bearing at 20,000 miles - Barnet clutch plates -
Valve job (Raber’s in
Other: - Brake calipers (both front and rear) rebuilt with stainless steel pistons - Magura front master cylinder upgrade kit - Tank sealed with Caswell’s sealer - Stainless spokes and nipples on rear wheel -
- Single Mikuni 34 mm carb, K & N filter - Stainless fasteners everywhere – axle nuts, primary, gearbox, timing covers, etc. - Stainless braided oil lines - Stainless braided head oil feed line - Stainless braided rear brake line - Neoprene valve cover gaskets - Both tach and speedo were rebuilt - Venhill Teflon-lined clutch cable - Fork seals replaced recently
- Bezels on tack and speedo slightly different (that way when I got it) - oil leak from primary area - 2 of the 4 console warning light bulbs not working (high-beam and ignition lights) I have no experience with shipping but can work with you on this end, if needed. |

I'm on a Goodwood Revival comedown
Tue, 22 Sep 2009I'm on a massive comedown after a great weekend at Goodwood Revival. The Revival relives the glory days of the 50s and 60s and that's not just marketing hype, almost everyone is dressed in perios clothing, the cars are all from 1948 to 1966 and the effort that goes into setting Goodwood up is incredible, even the burger vans are retro Citroens, the staff are dressed in period clothing and about the only thing not retro was the price of a bacon sarnie; £6.50, ouch! I only planned to go down on Friday, but I had such a good time I headed back on Sunday too.
Norton V4SV: the most luxurious British sportbike ever created
Fri, 12 Nov 2021The Solihull company announced nothing less than the beginning of a new era of British motorcycle construction. And the symbol of the beginning of this era will be the Norton V4SV sportbike, presented at once in two versions: Manx and Carbon. Scheduled for release next year, the V4SV is powered by a 1,200cc V-4-cylinder engine, developed in-house.
The first Norton to roll off the assembly line in 2021 will be Commando
Wed, 23 Dec 2020The British company plans to produce 40 motorcycles of this model, most of which have already been prepaid. And only after the end of the story with Commando, the company will move on to the assembly of the V4 model, and then the two long-awaited Atlases. According to the company's management, the new model, Norton Atlas, currently still requires a number of final fine-tuning works before the start of mass production.
