Hello, being new to Norton, and rebuilding a 1977 Mk3, I would like to find out as much as possible about the production of the later Mk3's.
I've read Bert Hopwood's book, Whatever Happened to the British Motorcycle Industry? and found it very informative.
But it only touches on Norton in the later years.
Is there any other books documenting the Norton later years?
Does anyone here have any stories?
It seems that some, including mine, were put together from inferior parts???????
Maybe 32 years of clown mechanics played a significant part in bad parts and machining I've found?
