Norton All description

This is a completely rebuilt Norton Commando 750. It was stripped down to the frame and then the frame, swing arm, hubs and rims were all sand blasted and powder coated gloss black.  it has new bushings and isolastic mounts and a Dave taylor head steady. The engine was completely rebuilt with new cylinders and new pistons, rods and rings. The crank was balanced. The top end has new valve guides and springs and finned valve covers. It has a mikuni carb , new grey paint and tank liner. New Avon Super Venom tyres. New stainless steel spokes. New fork tubes and springs. All aluminum has been polished. Corbin gunfighter leather seat. It runs great and it sounds beautiful. I am sure you have noticed the rust. Somehow or other the triple trees did not get painted and are therefore showing a little rust. It's an easy fix. the same goes for the steel nuts. They just need to be removed and wire brushed. Easy.

Moto Electra Equips Electric Norton Race Bike with iPad Console

Fri, 14 Sep 2012

Moto Electra has found a new, innovative way to combine old and new technologies in its electric race bike. The Virginia-based Moto Electra has been an active participant in electric motorcycle racing for the last few years, competing against much larger, better funded teams with a race bike using an electric motor and 1950s Norton Featherbed frame. That melding of old and new has produced surprising results, including podium finishes in the TTXGP and victory in a race featuring both electric and gas-powered motorcycles.
