The 1968 Norton P11 F orget compromise. Forget Refined. This is the 1968 Norton P11, the Beast! The 1968 Norton P11 (often marketed as the P11A or Ranger) is a legendary, 750 cc, high-performance " desert sled ". Born out of American racing demands, it combined a massive Norton Atlas engine with a lightweight Matchless frame. Today, it is revered by collectors as a rare and exciting footnote in British motorcycle history. Sales of P11's on "Bring-A-Trailer" : https://bringatrailer.com/search/?s=Norton+P11 The Origin Story The P11 was not originally designed in a boardroom but rather born in the United States. In the mid-1960s, Associated Motorcycles (AMC) owned both Norton and Matchless. Bob Blair, Norton's US West Coast distributor (ZDS Motors), wanted a competitive, lightweight scrambler for California's desert racing scene. After the factory refused to build it, Blair and his mechanics took a lightweight Matchless G85CS off-road frame and shoehorned the powerful 750cc Norton Atlas parallel-twin engine into it. This homemade creation proved so incredibly fast and agile that AMC executives in the UK adopted the design. The resulting bike was named "Project 11" (which became P11). Evolution in 1968: The P11A and "Ranger" While the 1967 P11 was an out-and-out desert racer, it lacked everyday street manners (featuring high-mounted pipes and a tiny competition seat). In response, Norton revised the bike for 1968 into the P11A , and later the Norton Ranger . Street Comfort: The 1968 models featured lower-mounted exhaust pipes with removable baffles and a broader, more comfortable dual seat. Parts Bin Special: The P11 series was essentially an exercise in using up old AMC parts. As a result, 1968 production batches varied heavily, with different styles of oil tanks, handlebars, and mudguards depending on factory inventory at the time. Technical Specifications Engine: Air-cooled, 750cc OHV parallel twin (taken from the Norton Atlas) Horsepower: Approximately 52.5 hp to 56 hp Weight: ~388 lbs (very lightweight for a big twin of that era) Frame: Reynolds 531 steel cradle frame (derived from the Matchless G85CS) Transmission: 4-speed AMC non-unit gearbox Performance: Top speed of roughly 105 mph Legacy and Rarity The P11 was a dominant force on the track for a brief period. Most notably, racer Mike Patrick won the 1968 California Desert Race Championship on a P11 . However, its reign was short-lived. By 1969, agile, lightweight two-stroke dirt bikes began to dominate off-road racing. Furthermore, Norton had launched its wildly successful Commando, which utilized handling concepts developed on the P11. Consequently, Norton ended P11 production in late 1968 to focus on the Commando. Because the entire production run lasted only around 20 months and roughly 2,500 units were built (with almost all sold in the US), original P11’s and P11A Rangers are highly prized.

Since then the fuel was drained, oil pan is still full, with no leaks.Engine has excellent compression, transmission shifts through the gears easily, brakes work well. To get this back on the road, give it a basic British bike service: new fuel, change plugs, carburetor cleaner, starting fluid and get he running.

Condition: Listing details from the bike's own eBay listing: Year: 1974; Make: Norton; Model: Commando Roadster; Mileage: 26,621 miles; Engine: 850 cc; Type: Sportbike; Color: Blue. For sale is a bone stock un-molested 1974 Norton 850 Commando Roadster. This is a numbers matching example, (engine. gearbox and correct sequence of the frame number) of a very popular British bike from the 1970's and one year removed from extinction. I have gone over this bike with a fine tooth comb and declare this is original not restored (tires have been replaced) with original paint described in the Norton database as Royal Blue/Fireflake Blue Metallic and somewhat rare color for the era. The engine serial number and gear box numbers are: 314626, The Verlicchi frame number is 850 F104820 again correct with this time period where the frame number did not match the engine/gearbox number, casting on the heads is RH10 Norton part number 065062 850cc head 8:50-1 compression with 30mm inlet ports and this bike is consistent with the MKII and MK 11-A designation. The paint appears to be all original, no re-paint with the exact type of metal flake used by Norton in this time frame. There is rust with the paint chipping off the bottom edge of the tank and visible stock paint on the underside, proves original type of wear with the mileage shown (26621), see the pictures of this. More evidence of original non- restore is the fading of the hand painted factory pin striping and shows of natural wear. Date code is 4/74 matches in the database with the serial numbers and the frame number. The twin carburetors are stock Amal period correct with ticklers, the rest of the bike all the lighting, wheels, hubs, brakes, wiring, Smith Gauges, exhaust, seat, center and side jiffy stand all original, And original sticker on the rear fender still intact that reads "Made In England" with no signs of any major damage or crashes. This is old school, kick start only (NOTE: If you have weak right leg you will have a problem starting this !!), right side shift, 4 speed transmission, left side rear foot brake. Takes a little getting used to, starting is an adventure ! but runs great ! The bike has a clean Wisconsin title, Includes an original owners manual, workshop manual And period correct magazine page showing the exact bike And color. If interested contact John @ two six two three seven zero six three six three.
