Just a quick question regarding the owners book pack that came with the bike when new. I have a 1977 Norton Commando MK3 Interstate, when I got the bike a pack came with it, in the plastic bag came a hand book, book of service vouchers, worldwide distributors book, Avon tyre booklet, 3 sheets of paper on how to put various parts onto the bike I.E how to put the front mudguard on. I have never seen another pack is there anything missing from my pack ?

Regards

Can't much help you on that one Mark . I have a 76 Interstate in silver that only came with the sales brochure /book .
 
On one of his videos Mike from Mighty garage goes through the documents one of his bikes came with. From memory everything you list but not the papers showing how to fit parts.

I'd think you probably have the most complete set existing. Hope you have the original tool kit too.

Hi John

Thank you for the reply I have all the items in the mighty garage video(just watched it) tool kit yes was one item missing but have found the item, now tool kit is complete. I'll photograph the items I have in the book pack and get some pictures up on the Forum for anybody that's interested.

Mine had the little folded up, narrow, Amal tuning booklet. Have seen many reprints around. This was in June of 1972.

I have all my books that came from the dealers when I brought my Norton new in 76, old stock new 74 Roadster, but they are around somewhere, Avon tyre booklet, owner operator booklet and a few papers upgrade things been so long since I seen them, but I also got the dealer posters of the newer M111 which hang proudly on my shed wall with my Triumph dealer posters I got when I brought a new 81 Triumph Thunderbird.

Mark,
Here are a few additional documents that may have been included in your instructional literature wallet. My documents are for my 1974 Mark IIA Interstate.

I don't believe my instruction wallet is complete, for instance I don't have instructions for installing the front fender, exhaust system, center stand, etc.

The first item is the warranty registration card tear off tab left after the owner completed and mailed in the registration card.

I'm not too sure that the Norton was originally included in the wallet but it was in mine.

Many thanks for providing those images at least I know what they look like and to keep an eye out for them. I must have missed putting the spark plug leaflet in my images only just noticed but I do have one in my pack,
