Fay Taylour: Queen of Speedway
New great book from Panther Publishing
Fay Taylour was the most successful woman
speedway rider - ever. Her short but meteoric career
spanned just a few years in the late 1920s until
women were banned from the Speedway in 1930. In
these few years Fay made a name for herself first in
Trials riding, in which she won several Gold Medals,
and then in Speedway, one of the toughest of all
sports on a motorcycle. Fay competed against, and
beat, most of the well known male speedway riders in
the UK, Australia and New Zealand and became
something of a legend - the Queen of Speedway!
This book is a biography of Fay and especially her
motorcycle years in trials and speedway. It is a
fascinating account of a truly remarkable woman and
the early years of speedway in England, Australia and
New Zealand.
Author Brian Belton has Speedway in his blood. His
father and grandfather both worked at West Ham
Stadium and knew many of the racers there. Brian is
now an academic, a youth worker and a well known
author of books such as West Ham Speedway,
Hammering Round and Bluey Wilkinson - the Hammer’s
first World Champion.

Norton CD-Manual
The very best Norton compilation ever produced! Buy this CD & You support BritBike.com
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- 400 cc 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.
Price: US$59.00 includes worldwide shipping

This CD covers AJS and/or Matchless machines from
1926
almost without any breaks right through to 1967 for

covered, and one of the workshop manuals is a
Norton Matchless full-on Workshop Manual that
covers ALL models (up to 650 cc 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

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.
