Inside the Norton 961 - BOOK

cliffa · Friday at 2:00 PM

It looks like mine will arrive tomorrow. Which is a shame because I left for the Isle of Man today.
It would have been great to sit and read it at the spiritual home of Norton. (especially as the weather is due to deteriorate after Tuesday). Oh well, hey-ho, you cant have it all.

Hi Richard, nice to hear from you! I’m definitely interested in a copy please. Are you on Facebook as well, as there are at least four 961 groups on there as well, and i’m sure some folks would be interested.

I don't have Facebook. But anyone who does and would like to share.... https://by-richard-coote.square.site/ I would be so greatful.

Hi guys. Been a while. I bought a 1969 Porsche 911 it's a field find so.... a rust bucket, needed everything. Been taking all of my time. I'm about half way done. I'm still riding my bike often. I have 21,000miles now.

For ever and day I've been asked to make my manuals into a physical book people can buy. Well.... here it is. I finally finished it. I don't yet have a price because I'm working it out with the printer. But before I get too far I wanted to know how many people are interested in this still? Should I go ahead and invest in it. I would sign them if you're interested.

The manuals will still be free. The difference between the book and the manuals isn't too much. But there is def. more info in the book. I've updated a few things I've since learned. Added some things that you may know depending when is the last time you communicated with me. I added all the engine mods we do to make the engine better.

In the book is a special thank you to ACCESS NORTON and COLORADO NORTON WORKS. These two have really helped spread the word and keep the bikes on the road. SO thank you for this.

Drop your comments here and as I get more info I'll add to the thread until the books are ready to ship.

I don’t think it’s a good idea to put your email here for public view. The spam bots will get it and you will get bombarded with spam. You should use the messaging system.

Also, lots of things going on with access Norton in the background and one of them is a page for Richard’s book.

Stay tuned,
Jerry
