1961 Norton 249cc Jubilee de Luxe
Registration no. VCH 544
Frame no. 102337 17
Engine no. 94051 R17

The Norton Jubilee, the company's smallest twin, was created to celebrate the diamond jubilee of the Norton company, founded in 1898. VCH 544 was purchased by the vendor in 2016, in need of restoration. The owner advises that he carried out a complete strip and rebuild, renovating or replacing anything that was needed. The large quantity of invoices in the history file attest to this, and include paintwork, carburettor, exhaust system, 12 volt electrics, alternator stator, chains, seat and electronic ignition. Since completion, the Jubilee has been started once, but due to a leg injury, the owner is no longer able to start it, hence the sale. The machine will, therefore, require some commissioning by a new owner. Documentation comprises a current V5C, an expired MoT, numerous invoices, some photos, and miscellaneous papers. The machine is presently on SORN.
