Feedback from our readers!
Too many britbikes are pampered and not used right
From: Bill Anderson Riverside, CA USA
Hi Morgan,
Too many britbikes are pampered and not used
right. Heres a photo of how they should be used.
Photo taken at El Mirage, Sept. 05. Running in the
gas class A/PG his top speed that day was 123.075
mph. The Norton is a 1960 wideline with an early
Weslake speedway engine. Exact year unknown, but
a good guess would be sometime in the mid 70s.
I've owned it since 1967 and the Weslake is the fifth
engine to fill the hole.
Keep up the good work. Bill

AJS Matchless CD--Manual
The AJS & Matchless CD
This CD covers AJS and/or Matchless machines from
1926
almost without any breaks right through to 1967 for
Parts Lists, plus fifteen workshop manuals or out-of-
print service and maintenance textbooks covering
much the same period. Both twins and singles are
covered, and one of the workshop manuals is a
Norton Matchless full-on Workshop Manual that
covers ALL models (up to 650cc twins) from 1957 to
1966. The Norton-engined
models are well-covered too in other works, and
there are lots of lovely
reproductions of sales brochures from various periods
as well as some excellent histories of the Matchless
marque and engine number details. This is a very
complete compilation and a MUST for the
AJS/Matchless enthusiast. This is a single-CD set

Norton CD--Manual
Norton Fourth edition CD-Manual
The Norton CD is now into its FOURTH EDITION, and
covers not just the Commando, but all the so-
called "heavy-weight" twins (as opposed to the
under-400cc twins) and the "classic" singles - the
ES2, the International,
and of course the Manx. AND, we even have a post-
Commando bike covered, with the inclusion of the
workshop manual for the rotary-engine Interpol 2.
There is a rebuild manual which also covers the
LIGHTWEIGHT TWINS, and the Commando section
has been added to with another Parts List, Stage 2
Tuning
Notes for the 850, and other minor service-related
matters. There is of course a complete set of factory-
issued Service Sheets for the Commando (over 170
pages worth!).
AND we have added a new Maintenance Manual for
the 16H, Big 4, 18, & ES2 singles, and
more "memorabilia". There is also a NEW Engine Data
Base which covers from the 1946 Model 18 to the
1963 Atlas.
This is a single-CD set.
