In 1948 Nortons new twin appeared as a 500cc and soon became known as the Norton Dominator motorcycle. Although not particularly impressive, this changed with the introduction of the Featherbed frame in 1952. Bigger engines were introduced and production continued even after the Company was taken over in 1966. The final Dominator Norton, the 650cc Mercury, rolled down the line in 1970.

Donovan, in concert with Bill Mansell, had by 1913 begun to modify the Norton TT model into the Brooklands Special racer, with a guarantee that the engine had exceeded 65m/ph for one lap at the track. Each fast engine was installed in a slave chassis. That test chassis, having housed so many quick and famous engines, gained the name Norton Old Miracle. The Norton BS motorcycle weighed just over 90kg.

The new model Norton Commando 952 motorcycle - is the result of years of experience in the restoration Drira models Norton Commando and two years to develop a modernized version of the popular motorcycle. Over the years we have learned of the Norton brand motorcycles and high-tech sport-bike, and we were particularly pleased to use all our knowledge in creating a model 952 Commando, who took part in the creation of a motorcycle Norton Commando VR880 at the end of 1980.
