  • 'Cafe racer' project, registered as a Triton in April 1967
  • 1956 Norton ‘Dominator 99’ frame
  • Triumph Tiger 100 500cc engine

Offered here is a 'Cafe Racer' styled machine, registered as a Triton in April of 1967. The components are a 1956 Norton Dominator 99 frame with a Triumph Tiger 100 500cc engine believed to be from 1955 with what is described to us as ‘good compression’. A BSA gearbox completes the package. This is an intriguing Triton project for completion, well suited to a 'Cafe Racer' enthusiast.

The major motorcycle parts are present and includes: 5 gallon aluminium petrol tank; rebuilt front and rear wheels with 19 inch diameter aluminium rims; twin leading shoe front brake unit; Norton Atlas rear sprocket; stainless steel oil tank; reconditioned Lucas K2F Magneto; pair of one inch Amal Monobloc carburettors; Lucas 6 volt dynamo; matched speedometer and rev counter heads mounted in an aluminium nacelle; new stainless clip on handlebars; upswept twin exhaust and silencer; racing type ‘Manx’ seat; wiring lights and switch; 8 inch Norton front hub; front mudguard and brackets.

This excellent project also comes with some old tax discs, which go some way to confirm the known provenance on this period machine. It will require a chain, re-wiring and general finishing. A V5 is present.
