what is it

[mark2]

I thought matchless due to shape of fuel and oil caps , but this frame is one piece , also the forks are 7 1/2 inch wide

got a email off where it came from , this bike was fitted with a Norton engine which was removed for another project , but was not thought to be  the correct engine for the machine

trip back norton twin engine now going back in , its a monster and just maybe a death machine

That didn't start life as a Norton...

Show a pic of what it looks like when done. ?

[mark2]

no I don't think so either , and theres no way the gear box will handle the power or line up with this engine , the engine has come with the mount plates , looks like it was started but stopped half way , I will look to see if can finish but will have to alter frame for a dif gear box , not a job can do so cost may halt this one .

makes me think why he gave up , 2hrs with grinder and im thinking even I might do this , spare t100 engne and box for sale

[mark2]

im starting to get interested in this , but will only ever be a bunch of parts , frame number is 190

[wink]

Love it! looks like something my father would have built, How´s it coming on?

[mark2]

I sort of lost interest a bit , had it together then stripped just to clean , regreese , and paint over the rust , I never wanted to resore it but more bar hopper bobber thing , I rebuilt engine and box andjust left , you may have just got me interested again , heres how it stands now , never found out for sure what it had been once but engine box primary and drive all lined up , may finish over winter
