Re: OH NO! I've caught LEVER FEVER!

OH NO!!!!!!!!!! I'm now getting an uncontrollable urge to count rivets. Please, if I turn into a rivet counter, take me to the vet and have me put to sleep?

Re: OH NO! I've caught LEVER FEVER!

Sam the later 16H's had 7/8" bars!

Here is a scan from a 1944 M20 parts list showing the standard Amal levers. The choke and mag levers are curved and have a ball end and not the flat end. Ron

Hi Cas, I would say your front brake lever and mount are Norton 16H, looks just like the one on my Norton.
Getting lever fever is a bad illness and can take a long time to cure and it's not cheap unless you're lucky


Only problem would be the 1" vs 7/8".?


Late war and civvie bikes were 7/8"

Re: OH NO! I've caught LEVER FEVER!

Just returned from Wuxi in China today and the first of two packages was sitting there with four sets of NOS levers. When I receive the rest I will contact all parties whom requested some. They are covered in thick grease but I will leave them for the new owners to clean up.

Re: OH NO! I've caught LEVER FEVER!

Those Dohertys are mid- to late-war Norton. Are they 1" or 7/8" ?

If only you could find early pattern Norton with the solid clamp halves too...

AAHHHH, I must be drunk Amazing find, I would be in the queue if I hadn't a spare set.

These levers work great, especially the valve lifter, much and much better than that stupid little thumb lever that pricks into the tank.

They are 1" levers but no nuts and bolts for them.
