Sold with the V5C.
Introduced for 1961 at Earls Court, the Navigator was the first bike to be built on the Norton production line at Plumstead. With the 349cc model, the firm addressed almost all of the 250’s troubles and produced a very fine lightweight four-stroke twin. The cylinders were made of a single casting, to give better oil retention, although the cylinder heads continued to be separate. TT racer Harold Daniell raced a standard Norton Navigator at Silverstone, a recorded speed of 101 mph was achieved on a standard Navigator with a tweaked carburettor.
ASL has been owned and ridden by our vendor for the last four years and is reported to be in good useable condition. It is being sold as he has bought a modern Royal Enfield.
