Norton G15CS description

1969 Norton G15CS/123979 for sale!

This bike runs great and is in very nice condition! It remains exactly how it was prepared and displayed as the only road bike, along side other race bikes, at the 1971 Los Angeles Automobile and Motorcycle show. The original owner fell in love with it at first sight and within 24 hours of seeing it at the show, he contacted the dealer and purchased it. After he had to sadly part from the bike, I became its second owner. Since then, I have put less than 300 miles on it and made sure to start it regularly. The odometer is broken, but the original owner estimates the mileage to be between 3 and 4,000 miles. Some visible flaws are minor chaffing of the paint where the tool compartment cover fits, minor dings on the mufflers, and the shock boots are splitting. According to the original owner, the upswept exhaust pipes and the air cooled double leading edge front brake hub (as on the Commando) were added for the Los Angeles show. The candy apple green custom paint was added to give it some extra pizzazz on the show stand at the Los Angeles show. Some G15CS's were badged as Nortons while others were badged as Matchless.

The Duke of Cambridge, Prince William, visited Britain’s largest motorcycle show, Motorcycle Live, at the National Exhibition Center in Birmingham. The visit saw the Duke astride numerous motorcycle models including UK icons Norton and Triumph as well as a Ducati 1199 Superleggera (one of the few men able to afford the $70,000 rarity). During his visit Prince William enjoyed a display of off-road riding – one of nine opportunities for visitors to ride at Motorcycle Live, eight of which are inside the halls of the NEC. He also met Dean Linehan, exhibitions director of MCI Exhibitions, the company that organizes the annual motorcycle exhibition.

SEE THE MACHINE that could propel Britain to a new motorcycle land speed world record at The Race Retro 2010 show, held at Stoneleigh Park, Coventry from 12th to 14th March. Almost a year has passed since Visordown broke the news of the planned UK assault on the land speed record - this coming August the Angelic Bulldog team travels to Bonneville, where it is hoping to smash the 400mph barrier and bring the motorcycle Land Speed Record back to the UK for the first time since 1937. The current record stands at 360.913mph over a kilometre.
