  • We Always Aim to Supply Transfers of the Highest Quality in Mint Condition
    INTRODUCTION We hope you enjoy reading through our latest catalogue. We aim to provide restorers and historic vehicle enthusiasts with transfers and graphics to the highest attainable standard. Our background is mainly motor cycle orientated but over the years we have found that many motor cycle transfers were used on bicycles, and vice versa. If you are unable to find what you need always ask - we may be about to have the item printed. The majority of our stocks are the popular waterslide transfers but we also supply vinyl graphics where originally they were in that format. Low volume sellers are also supplied as vinyl graphics where a waterslide print run would be totally uneconomic. We use only best quality cast 10 year vinyl with a 'thinness' of 50 microns (2 thou inch). We are also able to offer white registration letters and numbers in four sizes, 1¾ inch and 2½ inch deep for motor cycles and 3 inch and 3½ inch for three wheelers and motor cars. See last page for further details. By far the majority of our artwork is produced by hand-drawing (as were the originals) and we resist the temptation to produce transfers using standard computer fonts, thus keeping the period look of the originals. We have tried to be as accurate as we can with the relevant location and year information in our listings, but your detailed knowledge of a particular model may well be greater than ours. LEGEND 4 Figure ref. nos. only - Waterslide Type 4 Figure ref. nos. suffixed by LC - Vinyl Graphics Best quality, 2 thou material V - Varnish Fix R.L.H.

  • The Birmingham Small Arms Company Limited (BSA) Was A
    Norton Villiers Triumph Norton Villiers/BSA factory in Small Heath in its heyday _____________________________________________________________________ Norton Villiers Triumph was a British motorcycle manufacturer, formed by the British Government to continue the UK motorcycling industry, but the company eventually failed. Triumph had been owned by the BSA Group since 1951, but by 1972 the merged BSA-Triumph group was in serious financial trouble. British Government policy at the time was to save strategic industries with tax payers' money, and as BSA-Triumph had won the Queen's Awards for Exports a few years earlier, the industry was deemed 'strategic' enough for financial support. The Conservative Government under Ted Heath concluded to bail out the company, provided that to compete with the Japanese it merged with financially troubled Norton Villiers (the remains of Associated Motor Cycles, which had gone bust in 1966), a subsidiary of British engineering conglomerate Manganese Bronze. The merged company was created in 1973, with Manganese Bronze exchanging the motorcycle parts of Norton Villiers in exchange for the non-motorcycling bits of the BSA Group—mainly Carbodies, the builder of the Austin FX4 London taxi: the classic "black cab." As BSA was both a failed company and a solely British-known brand (the company's products had always been most successfully marketed in North America under the Triumph brand), the new conglomerate was called Norton Villiers Triumph—being effectively the consolidation of the entire once-dominant British motorcycle industry. NVT inherited four motorcycle factories—Small Heath (ex-BSA); Andover and Wolverhampton (Norton); and Meriden (Triumph). Meriden was the most modern of the four.

  • NORTON COMMANDO 750 24Th June 2018 Feature Articles 'Classic Bike Guide'
    NORTON COMMANDO 750 24th June 2018 Feature articles 'Classic Bike Guide' Dennis Poore watched with relish as Associated Motor Cycles began imploding under a mountain of debt. In 1960, AMC, the giant conglomerate that included Matchless, AJS, Norton, Francis- Barnett and James, had turned a profit of £219,000 but a year later the books revealed a massive £350,000 loss. And that was a huge sum of money – today it would have been up to £15,000,000 (euro 17,000,000). Villiers Engineering, which manufactured engines in Wolverhampton for small motorcycles like the James and Fanny-B, was also on the ropes. The boss of Manganese Bronze Holdings, Roger Dennistoun Poore was not your average company chairman. He had earned a Master’s degree in engineering at King’s College, Cambridge where he began by making his own vice drill from scratch – and very nice it is too. I know, because it is sitting on my workbench. Then he made his own bench drill, including pouring the molten metal for the castings. And he had some of the best and brightest tutors in the country, including Dr Stefan Bauer, whose CV includes Rolls-Royce, Norton Villiers and BSA. Cambridge University had an active car racing club and Poore was soon hooked. But before he had time to make much use of his engineering degree, war clouds were gathering over Europe. Poore joined the Royal Air Force and, thanks to his leadership abilities, soon reached the rank of Wing Commander. When peace returned, so did car racing and Poore bought the ex-Tazio Nuvolari Alfa Romeo 8C-35 that had won the 1936 Donington Grand Prix.

Now that winter is setting in many of us are spending more time in the garage. Here’s two examples . If you are spending your time turning wrenches instead of turning a throttle please send me a picture and maybe even write a paragraph so while we aren’t riding we can have something cool to read and look at. Downsizing by Tony Hagger Now we are old, we have decided to downsize , which means a smaller house. No problem. But with a smaller house comes a smaller garage, which is a serious problem. No longer do I have room for a bike lift. Or even more than 2 bikes. So my Nortons had to go, and I just have a mod- ern Triumph and a Velocette MSS. The MSS is different from the Venom/Thruxton that many of you saw on the Phantom Canyon runs of yesteryear. The MSS is supposed to be more of a touring bike, with more torque than the sportier Thruxton. This is a lie. It doesn't has have more torque at low revs. Instead it just has so much less power at high revs. that it just makes the lower end SEEM better! This power reduction is achieved by using an even lower compres- sion ratio, smaller valves and a smaller carburetor.

Från början bestod verk- samheten i huvudsak av försäljning av trampcyklar och delar till dessa. Bl. a tillverkades en egen cykel, ”ROFFES ESS”, som rönte stor framgång. På 50-talet byttes trampcyklarna ut mot mopeder och mo- torcyklar, som t. ex. Husqvarna, Monark, NV och andra lätta motor- cyklar. Även kompletta reservdelslager till dessa. Mindre utombordsmotorer ingick även i sortimentet. I början av 60-talet upphörde vår försäljning av hela fordon och vi koncentrerade oss på reservdelar och ett mycket stort tillbehörssortiment, i första hand till eng- elska motorcyklar och till mopeder. I slutet av 60-talet tillkom delar och tillbehör till ja- panska motorcyklar och i början av 70-talet komplet- terade vi sortimentet med delar till Harley Davidson. Våren 1982 stängde vi vår egen butik och försäljningen av mopeddelar upphörde.

Farewell Bob Ward Remembering Raymond Dhue Members New Toys New Barber 2010 Format Next Survivor Series Well here it is February 15, 2011, Where does the time go. It is with great sadness that we say good-bye to one of our own, again. Bob Ward was a great Friend and Brother and he passed away doing what he loved the most. We will all miss your friendly, helpful, loving per- sonality. Till we meet again. The BIG ride 2010, which was a history making event, was the Scooter Ride, spearheaded by none other than ―Big Daddy‖ Ed Dacus. SO WE THOUGHT . What a great job and a GREAT ride. That was last April. But the REALLY BIG RIDE of 2010 was the November Scooter Ride. Thanks again to all the people involved and a special Colonel Bob thanks to Jeffie Dacus Ed’s Mother, Sherri Dacus, Les- lie Dacus Ed’s daughter-in-law. The Breakfast was OUT-OF-THIS-WORLD AGAIN. NOVEM- BER 13, 2010 turned out to be one of the coldest and rainiest days of the month. But the response was overwhelming. You may know 79 people attended the April event with 49 riders were rolling. The November event brought out 112 people and a total of 97 bikes, 50 of which braved the elements and actually rode the three stop shop tour laid out by Big Daddy and Shane Dorton.
