Thanks Dennis. Thankfully, I have a supply of drip pans for the Brit bikes and Harleys. It’s when they don’t drip oil that you worry about them.

Find the little Riders Manual for your year also (besides the workshop manual). This gives all the basic maintenance and riding info with photos and line drawings that really help a new Norton owner.

Thanks Batrider. I do have the riders manual bookmarked and it is helpful. Another rookie question. The Cush drive buffers were missing or totally deteriorated. The parts book shows a thick and thin buffer. I ordered a thick set but while it is unclear it may be that the thin set is also required. Also I can’t find any illustrations that show how to install them. Thanks in advance.

Yes, you need both sets. They fit as they are drawn on the parts diagram with the thick ones resisting the drive.

Thanks LAB. Diagram was unclear to me but now I see what appears to be the thick one leading in direction of rotation. Am I reading that correctly?

Yes.
