Description

  • The 99 was essentially a 500cc Model 88 taken out to 596cc and fitted with a new head offering higher compression
  • With 31bhp, the class-leading 'Featherbed' frame and 'Roadholder' forks, the 99 was a very desirable package in period
  • This good looking example dates from 1959 and remains matching numbers
  • It was UK registered from new and the V5C is on file
  • An older restoration to a good standard and in running order
  • Complete with original headlamp key
  • The quintessential 50s Norton twin and an absolute classic
