I’m restoring a N15CS from a basket case. It didn’t come with a fuel tank, so I’ve now got one that fits, I’ve got the fitting kit from Andover Norton and I can work out how it mounts at the rear.
There are two mounts, a rubber ring and a rubber pad.
How do I mount it to the bike?
Can someone post a photo of it?
Thanks,
Mark

You should probably move post to Other Norton's. But to help answer your question go here: https://andover-norton.co.uk/en/shop-drawing/509/petrol-tank-fittings.

If the frame has not been butchered it would be very obvious how to mount the tank at the front.

I got my P11 in milk crates (baskets, hence basket case) in the early 70's. The previous owner had cut the ears off that the tall cylindrical rubber fuel tank mounts sit on. If all you have below the head on the motor side of the down tubes at the front of the frame is a place to attach the top motor mount bracket and no ears to either side, you'll have to get some ears welded on. I'm not using proper British part names. Those ears could be called something else.

There are more than likely pics on this site of a stripped N15CS frame. The guys in the Other forum would have all the info you could ever need.
 
Where is the picture of what you have ? tank? frame?
