This lot will be auctioned via Iconic Auctioneers, The Iconic Motorcycle Sale at the NEC Classic Motor Show 2025 on Sunday the 9th of November, NEC, Birmingham, B40 1NT. Norton jumped aboard the vertical-twin bandwagon in 1949 when it introduced the Model 7 The new 500cc engine went into the existing ES2 plunger-frame/tele-fork cycle parts, a marriage that necessitated a redesign of Norton's well proven 4-speed gearbox The Model 7's first major revision arrived in 1953 in the form of a new swinging-arm frame Dating from 1953, this example presents in decent all round condition and appears mostly original Evidence of an older part restoration, the tank is well finished in light silver with red and black coachlines and the seat looks almost new Purchased at our Shuttleworth Summer Sale in July 2025 and has since covered approximately 90 miles. It remains in excellent mechanical condition Regrettably, our vendor has found the bike challenging to ride and is now offering it for resale - a reluctant but genuine decision UK-registered on a current V5C
