THE PERFECT NORTON GEARBOX
Let us rebuild your gearbox to shift reliably for thousands of miles
Often gearbox maintenance is given low priority by the rider, but in fact the health of this component is one of the most important in the drive train, as a faulty gearbox can lock up and cause extensive damage to both bike AND rider.
NYC Norton Complete Gearbox Rebuild: We disassemble your entire gearbox, inspect every gear, replace and update the sleeve gear bushings, springs, fasteners, and bearings. We install and shim the new roller layshaft bearing for perfect end float, cases are refinished, and covers are show polished. What comes back to you is the smoothest shifting and best looking gearbox on the market. $950.00

THE PERFECT NORTON CHASSIS
A lot of work goes into making your chassis perform
Whether restoring a Commando back to its former glory, or working with a Seeley or Featherbed chassis, NYC Norton specializes in setting up the largest and most critical component of the motorcycle to perform at its peak. Our racing experience can translate to a better handling street bike; focusing on areas often overlooked and neglected. A chassis with properly set up isolastics, head steady, and suspension, will transform your ride, and up your confidence and enjoyment. We supply upgrades that make tuneable set-ups easier while retaining the spirit of our classics.
Commando Swingarm Spindle Reinforcement: A lot of blame on ill-handing Commandos is focused on the Isolastics, when often the problem lies in the swingarm spindle wearing in its bores. Our Swingarm Spindle Modification will pin the spindle against the bore, removing slop for good. Send us your swingarm and engine cradle, and we return it with the modification in place. $189.00 (Purchase our Swingarm Spindle Kit HERE and fit yourself)
NYC Norton Complete Performance Fork Upgrade: NYC Norton will rebuild your entire front fork assembly, fit new fork tubes, clean, dress and show polish your fork sliders, fit the Cosentino Cartridge Damping kit (shim-stack tunable damping – best on the market), fit our top-spec Cosentino Teflon Fork Bushing Kit, and set up your forks beyond what the factory could have ever dreamed. Send us your fork sliders and we will return completely rebuilt forks with cartridge internals allowing full adjustable compression and rebound dampening, and pre-load tunablity, ready to fit. Without question, the best Norton fork setup available today. (Fork sliders must be in very good condition). $1750.00
