Norton
Jubilee Gallery
The Jubilee was
launched in late 1958 and so named to mark Norton's
60 years as a motorcycle manufacturer. The engine
was a completely new design by Bert Hopwood
who had also been responsible some ten years
earlier for the Dominator engine design.
It was the first Norton to feature a unit construction
engine and gearbox. Although the engine was
a new design, the frame, gearbox internals,
front forks and brakes were all taken from other
machines in the AMC parent group's range.
Originally offered in De Luxe trim with a rear
end enclosure until 1964, the Standard model
arrived in 1961, continuing in production until
1966. It is perhaps the least appreciated of
Nortons owing to its sedate performance, having
the smallest engine of any machine ever produced
by Norton.
