  • 600cc Model 99 with Featherbed frame and Roadholder forks
  • Part of a deceased estate, stood in owner’s house for many years
  • Bodywork finished in classic Norton 'Polychromatic Grey'

Norton began in 1898 and started building motorcycles with French and Swiss engines in 1902. In 1907 a Norton with a Peugeot engine won the first Isle of Man TT race starting a long tradition of sporting excellence. Developed for their Manx Norton race bikes, the legendary Featherbed frame eventually made its way onto the road in 1953 housing the 500cc Dominator twin cylinder engine. By the later 1950s the engine had grown to 600cc fitted into the classic Featherbed frame matched to equally iconic Roadholder forks.

This 1957 Dominator Model 99, being offered as no reserve, is part of a deceased estate. Not much is known of its history but it had been stored in the previous owner's dining room for a number of years. It appears to be more or less complete and the engine turns over on the kickstarter with all the bodywork, finished in the classic Model 99 polychromatic Grey, in solid condition. The bike is fitted with Borrani alloy rims and a period rear carrier and comes supplied with a V5C registration document.
