Havnt decided on paint yet... thats how I got the bike. Bike was built in Long Beach CA in the late 60's from what Im told.

Tons of nifty aftermarket parts on it...

Great project. I wouldn't worry with paint just use it as is. after you get it sorted then take it apart and paint.
Put some Norton decals or skull stickers on the tank for now.

That is exactly what I planned.. Thats how I did my commando. once everything was sorted out, and I didnt have to take the tank on and off any more. I did all the paint...

as seen here riding through death valley.

I Still havnt figured out what that front hub is off of. Closest I have seen is on factory yamaha road race bikes. but it also looks norton 2LS ish. but its not...

Bike also has a 2-1 exhaust that goes into a megaphone under the bike and exhausts out the left side near the front of the tire.

Has John Tickle Clip ons. Tomiselli levers.

Had 810 Dunstall barrels on it. but from the horror storrys I read on those on this site, I may not run them...

New Tri Spark ignition seems to smooth out P11 vibes.

150 miles for lunch run. All went well until the P11 spit a sputtered to a stop.
These guys had an interest but no P11 experience or tools.

Nice weather today, cooler temps.
TriSpark still sparking well.

Let me guess... You forgot you were already on reserve?

Is that a gremlin bell hanging next to your tach drive?

No, gas okay, simply a loose electrical connection from coil to ground.
Yes, a bell, but maybe it hasn't been on long enough to work! I think the bell is supposed to hang at a lower point.
I think a small tube of penetrating Loctite would be better talisman.

Here is photo from a couple days ago. have not ridden since this, too wet with rain.
Still raining today and for the future, the rain is wonderful!!

out for a P11 ride today, autumn colors are showing.
TrailTech Vapor is fun, speedo works well, odometer, clocks all work well...........Vapor electronic tach needs work, parts on order.
The new Tri-Spark ignition is working well, motor seems smoother.
I just leave Norton running , jump off and snap a photo, works pretty well......couple times the running bike has wandered off and fallen over.

This has morphed into your dedicated ride photo album, not that there's anything wrong with photos of a nice bike and nice scenery...

p400 · Oct 8, 2015

Todays coffee run, only 25 miles, but there were signs to keep me on the right road.....or left road......I am always lost.
This is a 90º corner out in the middle of nowhere.
please post photos of yours or anybody's P11

Here is another photo from the 7th.
P11 are pretty loud, better than deer whistles, but needs throttle control around housing and livestock.
Nobody has got a P11 photo?

grandpaul · Oct 11, 2015

Mine is sitting in a corner, waiting it's turn which will be a while.

Too many bikes, I guess...

Yesterdays road trip with buddy on beautiful MkIII Norton.
My buddies country community with stunning memorial for war vets.
There is a tall center flag pole and American flag flying at this memorial, but I wanted a close up of the plaque and Nortons

One of my goals on a mid day road trip is to eat lunch at a great location.
It doesn't get any better than this.

p400 · Oct 15, 2015

Hay, rolling along yesterday to a lunch at Panera.
Thinking about a windshield addition for this winter. Looking at National Cycle Plexifairing, but cant find total dimensions and the posted windshield pictures don't seem to match, at least not on Ebay.

Cant stop a train.
Must have been a 100+ tanker, all placard 1267
plenty of time for a picture.
actually shut the bike off, the train was so long.
