Norton 1960 1970 Lightweight And Heavyweight Twin Cylinder Workshop Manual 250cc To 750cc Including The 1968 1970 Commando

140 pages, and more than 140 illustrations and charts, size 8.25 x 10.75 inches. The original Norton factory "Twin Cylinder" workshop manual contained maintenance and repair data for both the lightweight and heavyweight Norton twins manufactured between 1960 and 1968, including the 750cc Atlas model, which was in production from 1962-1968. As many of the mechanical attributes from the Atlas series were carried over into the early Norton Commando models, we felt that the original "Twin Cylinder" manual was somewhat lacking as it did not include repair data for the early Commando that evolved from the Atlas. Consequently, we have updated and expanded this Floyd Clymer edition of the original "Twin Cylinder" manual to include the OEM Norton manual (part no. 06-3062) for the 1968-1970 Commando 750cc models that were fitted with the Atlas style exhaust and external rev-counter drive to the timing cover (Beginning with engine no. 126125 - February 1968) and the early camshaft driven contact breaker models (from engine no. 131257 - March 1969). While there is some duplication between the Atlas and Commando repair information, we felt that the Commando manual should be included in its entirety in order to 'complete' the coverage of the original "Twin Cylinder" manual from 1960 through the 1970 model year. It should also be noted that this manual includes significant maintenance and repair information for the AMC Norton/Matchless G15 hybrids that were manufactured from 1963-1967, engine numbers 107388 to 124371. IMPORTANT NOTE: Many of the reprints found on internet websites are from 'bedroom sellers' at enticingly low prices by individuals that really have no idea what they are selling. Many are nothing more than poor quality comb bound photocopies that are scanned and published complete with greasy pages and thumbprints and, as such, are deceptively described as 'pre-owned'. In addition, they are often advertised for the incorrect series and/or model years of motorcycles. However, VelocePress.com has been publishing licensed reprints of motorcycle and automobile manuals since 2003 and our publications have earned excellent reviews worldwide so you can be assured you are purchasing a quality product. We are pleased to offer this combined reprint of the Factory "Twin Cylinder" and "Commando" (06-3062) Workshop manuals.

A GUIDE TO THE POSTWAR 1945 THROUGH 1963 NORTON WORKSHOP MANUALS AND PARTS LISTS FOR THE SINGLE CYLINDER 16H, Big 4, 18, 19R, 19S, 50 & ES2. After the war ended in 1945, Norton resumed production of their civilian line of motorcycles and they also began publishing appropriate workshop manuals and parts lists. Unfortunately, there were numerous 'editions' of these publications and, while they identified the models they covered, the workshop manuals rarely identified the years they covered. Ultimately, this can lead to confusion regarding the selection of the appropriate publication for a particular year of Norton motorcycle. WORKSHOP MANUALS: Those published from 1945 up through 1960 were normally exclusive to a specific model. However, beginning in the 1960's, a series of workshop manuals were published that combined the data for both the single and twin cylinder models. Starting with part number P101, followed by P106 and finally P106/P this series of manuals was updated at various times through 1970, however, they continued to include the ES2 and 50 singles. When the 250cc Jubilee twin was introduced in 1958, the earlier 'P' series 'combination' workshop manuals were 'superseded' by the publication of a 1960-1970 factory 'Lightweight & Heavyweight Twins' manual, obviously, the single cylinder machines were no longer included. Owners of the single cylinder models may also find our 'Book of the Norton 1932-1947' (ISBN 9781588501288), 'Book of the Norton 1938-1956' (ISBN 9781588502063) and 'Book of the Norton 1955-1963' (ISBN 9781588501196) to be of interest.

Owners of Norton Commando motorcycles are subjected to considerable confusion surrounding the selection of an appropriate workshop manual from the multitude of originals and reprints that have recently flooded the on-line marketplace. Many of the reprints found on internet websites are from 'bedroom sellers' at enticingly low prices by individuals that really have no idea what they are selling.

During the 1968 to 1978 Commando model run there were 4 different manuals published by the factory: The original 52 page 750cc manual (part number 06-3062) is applicable to the 1968 to1970 models ONLY that were fitted with the external rev-counter drive and/or the Atlas style exhaust (refer to ISBN 9781588502421). This original manual was followed by part number 06-3419 which covers the 1970 to1973 750cc models ONLY. The next, and most comprehensive manual, part number 06-5146, was published in 1973 and the 850cc data was added making this manual applicable to the entire range of 750cc & 850cc models from 1970 to 1975. Finally, with the introduction of the electric start, left side gear change, rear disc brake Mark 3 models in 1975, a separate manual part number 00-4224 was published which is specific to the 1975 to 1978 MKIII 850cc series from engine no. 325001 & frame no. F125001.

186 pages, and more than 150 illustrations and charts, size 8.25 x 10.75 inches. This manual is a compilation of three original factory publications. The first is a reproduction of the 108 page 'Workshop Instruction Manual' for the 1957-64 Lightweight and Heavyweight singles and the twin cylinder models. The second is a reproduction of the 12 page 'Supplementary Instruction Book for Competition Models'. The third is a 60 page 'Instruction Book' combination that is exclusive to the 1958-1966 G2, G5, 14 and 8 Lightweight 250cc and 350cc singles. While the reprint of the original 108 page AMC workshop manual states that it is appropriate for the 1957-1964 models, it actually covers the entire line of AJS and Matchless 250cc to 650cc Lightweight and Heavyweight singles and 500cc to 650cc twins manufactured by AMC through 1966 (see below). Please note that it does not include the 750cc AMC G15/45 (1962-63) or the later Norton/AJS/ Matchless G15 hybrids. Owners of these 750cc hybrids are directed to the 'Norton 1966-70 Lightweight & Heavyweight Twins' workshop manual, ISBN 9781588502421 as it includes significant maintenance and repair information on those models. While the single cylinder machines are always considered the backbone of AMC's post-war production, in 1948 they introduced a 500cc twin cylinder, the AJS model 20 and Matchless G9. However, it was 1957 before that singular model was joined by a number of additional 500cc, 600cc and 650cc twins. In 1958 they also added two 'lightweight' singles to their well respected line of 'heavyweight' singles. Unfortunately, by the mid 1960's, along with most British motorcycle manufacturers, AMC was struggling to compete with the flood of Japanese imports and by 1966, the AMC conglomerate had collapsed. While the reason is mired in mergers, finances, consolidation, politics and worker unrest, both the AJS and Matchless name continued onward, under license, until early 1970, at which point both marques were history. 1957-1966 Lightweight and Heavyweight Singles and Twins covered in this manual are as follows: A.J.S. Models AJS 250cc Lightweight Singles: 14, 14CS, 14S, 14CSR AJS 350cc Lightweight Singles: 8 AJS 350cc Heavyweight Singles: 16MS, 16, 16C, 16MC, 16MCS, 16S AJS 500cc Heavyweight Singles: 18S, 18, 18CS AJS 500cc Twins: 20, 20CS, 20CSR (Also covers the earlier AJS 20 from 1948 onwards) AJS 600cc Twins: 30, 30CS (Also covers the 1955/56 AJS 30) AJS 650cc Twins: 31, 31CS, 31CSR, 650 Twin Matchless Models Matchless 250cc Lightweight Singles: G2, G2CS, G2S, G2CSR Matchless 350cc Lightweight Singles: G5 Matchless 350cc Heavyweight Singles: G3LS, G3, G3C, G3LCS, G3S Matchless 500cc Heavyweight Singles: G80S, G80, G80CS Matchless 600cc Heavyweight Single: TCS. Matchless 500cc Twins: G9, G9CS, G9CSR (Also covers the earlier Matchless G9 from 1948 onwards) Matchless 600cc Twins: G11, G11CS (Also covers the 1955/56 Matchless G11) Matchless 650cc Twins: G12, G12CS, G12CSR, 650 Twin Owners of the AJS Heavyweight singles may also find the following two publications useful: ISBN 9781588501240 'Book of the 1945-60' models and ISBN 9781588501677 'Book of the1955-65' models. Similarly, owners of the Matchless Heavyweight singles are referred to ISBN 9781588502087 'Book of the 1945-1956' models and ISBN 9781588502056 'Book of the 1955-66 models.

226 pages, and more than 90 illustrations and charts, size 8.25 x 10.75 inches. This manual is a compilation of 5 factory publications exclusive to the 500, 600 and 650cc Norton Dominator series that began with the introduction of the 500cc Model 7 in 1949 and ended with the 650cc Mercury in 1970. Workshop Manuals included are: (1) a 1949-1955 Model 7 workshop manual that includes the spring frame (plunger) rear suspension models. (2) a 1956-1970 workshop manual compiled from the appropriate pages extracted from the 1970 Norton factory workshop manual, part number P106/P, for the 88, 99, 650 and 'Sports Specials' - it is also appropriate for the 650cc Manxman and Mercury models. Illustrated Parts Lists included are: (3) a 1949-1950 parts list for the model 7 that includes spring frame (plunger) rear suspension. (4) a 1957 parts list for the 77, 88 & 99 and (5) a 1964 parts list for the 88SS, 650SS and the 650/99. However, as the 750cc machines ran concurrently with the final Dominator models, the Atlas and AMC variants are also included in this 1964 parts list. Please Note: The compilation workshop manual is specific to the Dominator series which ended in 1970. It does not include repair data for the 750cc Atlas or the AMC variants (see IMPORTANT NOTE Below). A GUIDE TO THE 1947 THROUGH 1970 NORTON WORKSHOP MANUALS AND PARTS LISTS FOR THE MODEL 7, 77, 88, 99, 650 AND VARIANTS After the war ended in 1945, Norton resumed production of their civilian line of motorcycles and they also began publishing appropriate workshop manuals and parts lists. Unfortunately, there were numerous 'editions' of those publications and they rarely stated the years they covered. Ultimately, this can lead to confusion regarding the selection of an appropriate publication for a particular year of Norton motorcycle.
