NORTON - Lot 51
NORTON Motorcycle ES2 500 cc 4-stroke vertical single-cylinder 1959 Engine no. 25-8534 Frame no. 25-1646 French registration The bike is in very good condition, bought as is by our collector several years ago. It's an old restoration. It will need to be restarted. This is the wide-frame version of the early Featherberd models. This model has a long history, beginning in 1927 and ending in 1963. It had a 36-year career, with numerous modifications along the way, but always with the characteristic of being a 500, 4-stroke single-cylinder tumbler. It was considered the top-of-the-range model of the brand. It's a 490cc, 25 hp at 5300 rpm, tumbled single-cylinder, separate BV4. Available from 1928 to 1964, in 350 and 500 cc versions. From 1959, it uses the famous wide Featherbed frame, followed in 1961 by the Featherbed Slimline with a narrower upper frame section.
