Mystery oiltank??
« on: April 22, 2012, 04:47:48 PM »
Hi,

Can someone please identify this oiltank? I think that I have seen a bit similar in some Norton model.. or OK Supreme. Many thanks for advance.

Cheers,
Jami

The underside and rear construction certainly looks like Norton, as do the threaded bosses. The long neck would suggest early 1930s.

The cap doesn't look original and I don't recognise the cut-away. Is it a modification for clearance of a non-standard or optional gearbox ?

Thanks RichP! I will look a Norton. The cap is homemade.
