Norton 750 Commando Racer Conversion Kits and Components
Download the complete PDF version using the green download button at the top right of this page for the August 1972 Norton service release covering 750 Racer and 750 Formula Racer conversion kits and components. This factory document explains the range of racing parts made available to convert a standard Norton Commando into a more competition-focused machine, with numbered kits, component lists, illustrations and fitting guidance for engine, chassis, controls, bodywork and braking upgrades.
The release begins with an engine performance kit covering cylinder head parts, racing camshaft-related preparation, piston and cylinder head checks, crankcase work and technical data for the modified engine. It then moves into carburettor accessories, Isolastic mounting head steady components, handlebars and controls, fairings, fuel tanks, seat and tail sections, and rear-set footrest kits for both the 750 Racer and 750 Formula Racer configurations.
Later sections cover the exhaust megaphone equipment, Norvil single-disc front brake conversion, Norvil double-disc front brake kit, conversion from single disc to double disc and the front mudguard required with the racing brake assemblies. Several pages include exploded illustrations and workshop diagrams showing the race fairing, seat supports, tank modifications, rear-set arrangements and brake conversion parts, making this an excellent factory reference for Norton competition specification and period race conversion equipment.
