I am renovating a Norton Atlas in 1964. And have applied for membership in this forum for any help and assistance.
It's my first total renovation ever.

Thanks for the welcome here comes some pictures from the renovation of my Norton Atlas. I am installing clutch and primary drive. Then I intend to mount new electricity + earth naturally.

Picture 1 Here I have just mounted the motor and gearbox in the frame. Picture 2 Here I mount the engine (I am the one without the cap). My grandson helps me. Picture 3 I have also tried to respoke or back wheel. It went pretty well.
