MANX NORTON MOTORCYCLE 1949 DOHC 500CC D11M

Magnifique moto !

The Grandpa of superbikes.Very cool bike.

Very nice bike and awesome sound, but its not DOHC, you can see the lever bar outside... on the right side.

Hi - You are wrong with your comment that the Manx is not DOHC. The Norton Owners Club in England knows about our bike, we sent them the Chassis & Engine Number and their records proved that this very Bike is in-fact, No.1 of 23 manufactured in 1949 with DOHC, this Manx is the very 1st Production DOHC NORTON to be manuf in 1949. I've fully restored the bike & engine & had the engine completely apart, checking everything. It has a DOHC Magnesium Cam Box, the Cams are directly above the valves.

Ah ok sorry, you´r right i thougt the bar outside was from a downside camshaft the leverbar, but actually it is the axle for the DOHC, very interesting system i never saw that before.
Its a very valueful bike.Enjoy it.

I can listen to this all day....

This is my favorite. What an icon. It goes without saying it sound's wonderful.
