  • c.1955 Norton 600cc Model 99 Dominator restoration project
  • Classic combination of a featherbed frame and Roadholder forks
  • A good winter project being offered at no reserve with a NOVA

Norton was founded by James Lansdowne Norton in Birmingham in 1898 and began 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. Once matched up to Norton’s own Roadholder forks it set new standards for handling, with the basic geometry still being copied to this day.

This matching numbers c.1955 Dominator is a 600cc Model 99 and is being offered sold as seen as a ‘no reserve’ winter project. Its history is unknown but it appears to have been repatriated from overseas and comes supplied with a NOVA number 15E206418. This Dommie has been stood for a number of years so will require full restoration but most of the important parts are in place, the tinware is quite solid and the engine turns over on the kickstarter.
