Norton Atlas Racer
Posted: Fri Jul 27, 2018 7:48 am
An opportunity to own a piece of motorcycle race history yet be able to ride on the street. Built in 1968 this Norton Atlas was transformed into a racer in 1973 then raced through Europe (Spa Francorchamp, Chimay, etc). It is one of the few race motorcycle that made it to this date yet has retained all its 70’s racing patina and character. I brought it back from Europe in 2015 making it a one of a kind in Canada.
It has passed the inspection in Quebec and is street legal. This is an original machine of the type that inspired all the café racers that we are seeing built today.
I still have all the track parts so it can be trimmed down to be light and track ready in about an hour.
Located close to Montreal. Please contact me at 450-369-3425 for price and other info
Features include:
• High compression engine
• Legendary Slimline Featherbed frame
• Original 5 gallons aluminum racing fuel tank
• High compression engine
• Rare Road Race (RR) Norton gearbox
• Custom Norton fork “T”
• Original Tomasselli Matador handlebars and levers
• Original and rare Borrani Record rims

• Manx style race fairing with LED light (not on the bike)
• Small LED back light / plate holder (not on the bike)
