1965 Norton Dominator 0.6L Petrol · KNH 244C

The Norton Dominator maintains a clean roadworthiness status following its most recent MOT on 26 February 2025. The absence of recorded defects during this inspection indicates a stable mechanical condition, suggesting the machine has been prepared for the test with appropriate diligence. As the vehicle currently holds a valid certificate, it meets the base requirements for road use as of the latest assessment. The recorded mileage of 23,367 miles over a sixty-one-year lifespan results in an average annual accumulation of approximately 383 miles. This extremely low usage pattern confirms the motorcycle has spent significant periods in storage or seen only occasional recreational use. While this limited mileage reduces the likelihood of heavy wear on internal drivetrain components, it increases the risk of issues stemming from long-term inactivity, such as fuel system degradation, perished rubber seals, or internal corrosion within the engine and gearbox. Prospective buyers should prioritise a physical inspection of all rubber components, including fuel lines, intake manifolds, and tyre sidewalls, as these materials deteriorate regardless of mileage. Check the fuel tank for internal corrosion or sediment that may have accumulated during extended periods of standing. Inspect the braking system for seized pistons or contaminated fluid, and verify that the primary drive and clutch mechanisms operate smoothly without signs of sticking. Given the age of the machine, examine the frame and mounting points for any signs of structural fatigue or historical corrosion that may not be captured in a standard MOT test.
