Sorry not a norton twin , but i think when you see the tach just giggle at the bottom it must be about 200rpm , My Bsa B33 has M20 flywheels and 94mm stroke and that's mated to a Harley evolution piston +.030 nearly 90mm bore, so just under 600cc single .I've just reduced cranking compression from the shovelhead piston it had , I still have 170psi and the motor had been running that day but the cylinder was fairly cold , I've done up the magneto and changed it to slack wire full advance , it has big valves 45mm ex and 47mm intake , with a phf 36mm delortto pumper , I got it dialed in pretty good with AFR gauge , cold starting is good , use only a little advance, full choke and two pump shots and usually it's going in 1 or 2 . Starts ok hot but I need to get used to what it needs , but it can kick back , really badly ! I find it's best to not have my leg fully extended and if it kicks back I stay loose and don't fight it .
