Cover Photo:
"Steve" McQueen was an American actor. Called "The King of
Cool", his "anti-hero" persona,
developed at the height of the
Vietnam War-era counterculture,
made him a top box-office draw
of the 1960s and 1970s. Wikipedia
McQueen of Cool
Steve McQueen has been in the spotlight a
lot lately. Maybe it’s the time of year (Nov.11)
when the true story behind Stalag Luft III is
being revealed and no American was actually involved in the Great Escape (there were
however several Canadians). And so there
was no Steve McQueen riding a motorcycle
and jumping the barbed wire — apparently
while running on Shell fuel (see YouTube).
That is pure fiction — but what Great fiction
it is! If that doesn’t make you believe in motorcycles, than nothing will! This was the
theme for this year’s ONO calendar — if you
were lucky enough to get one. Yes, McQueen knew something — something that
we all know. It can’t be described, but we
know that is has something to do with cool. !

The story behind Alistair Wilson’s stitched-up
Norton sweatshirt, that he sports on page 6,
is not revealed. For that, you’ll have to ask
him in person.!

Peter Gillett’s Norton breaks his heart, his
bank account, and his leg! (p.10)!
If you want to know what’s under Tom
Zumpe’s tank, check his Personal Ride (p.

his attention to detail and his knowledge on
how to really make these machines tick over.!

Our movie opens at Lake on the Mountain where you will
catch a couple glimpses of Robinson’s new 961. With a
cymbal crash we smash to Conway’s GoPro as he takes us
through the canyon and then to a GS in the flatlands — all
to the music of that quintessential 70’s song, Aerosmith’s
Sweet Emotion (I hope they don’t sue us). As we pass a
church we hear the lyrics, “You’re calling my name, but I
gotta make clear… Can’t say baby, where I’ll be in a year.”
—Oh yes I can, you’ll be at the Dark Café Run in Normandale. !

Of course, Ross was relaxing back at our

This year’s Supershow (Jan. 2-4), despite all the trepidation, went off without a
hitch. The two and a half days of load-in
made it super relaxed. On Wednesday our
booth was bone empty (underlay photo),
while the rest of the hall was filled wall to
wall with vintage. But I knew, if you put up
the banner, they will come. A day off (New
Year’s day) gave me extra time to make
Dark Café flyers. 100 got handed out during the show. Calendars sold out on day
two. Tax discs sold out except one which
will be a prize at the Café Run.!
And the dreaded load out went so fast (out
by 5:30), I was the last man standing. I
was trying to keep an eye on the table
while I wrapped, but when I turned around
I noticed that the only ONO patch on the
table had disappeared. I asked Alistair’s
friend who was sitting right there, but he
saw nothing. Then a little boy approached
the table. He had the biggest eyes. I said,
“Can I help you?” He shook his head no…
and politely walked away. Then Alistair’s
friend pointed to the floor where he saw
the patch drop from the boy’s jacket. Cute
kid overcome with the guilt of theft.!
I was in Hall 5 because, for the first time,
custom cafés had a good showing — tired

FrankenBikes and
Their Mad Creator…!
Alistair Wilson had not one,
but two Norsa’s at this year’s
Supershow. Here’s the How
& Why they were brought to
life…
Years ago I jumped to the wrong conclusion. It was on a club ride following the magnificent sea to sky highway in B.C. The Norton in front was
handling like it had the proverbial
hinge in the middle, wobbling in the
curves and weaving on the high speed
straights. Yikes! To be fair the setup
was obviously incorrect, but I erroneously concluded that the rubber
mounted swingarm of the Norton was
not up to the job. For this reason, for
many years, the BSA A-10 was the
ride of choice.
Having graduated from the school of
“Looks-About-Right School of Engineering” I took on the challenge of
shoehorning a Commando power plant
into the A-10 frame. The A-10 chassis
has a long engine bay so there is
enough room (barely) for the Commando package.
A few years later, while riding a very
hotted-up BSA A-10 with another
Commando, the shortcomings of the
A-10 became painfully evident. The
Commando walked all over the BSA.
Shortly after this ride the motor in the
A-10 blew up in a most spectacular
fashion. It seems the base flange on
the barrels is fragile and it shattered,
sending shrapnel all over. Thus was
born the concept of a Commando
powered A-10.
The Commando motor is mounted
with two studs at the back of the motor, and when these two are loose, the
holes will be made oval. To deal with
this, the new motor mount consists of
an engine plate running the full length
of the engine bay in a continuous
manner under the motor. This locates
the motor and transmission securely in
the chassis.
Lining up the transmission output
sprocket and the rear wheel sprocket
was accomplished with a laser beam.
The transmission had to be moved
over a bit to line up, so the transmission mounting bosses were machined.
Bert Hopwood was responsible for the
original design of both motors so it
was possible to keep it all in the family.
6
This resulted in the engine sprocket
not lining up with the transmission
clutch basket. To overcome this, a belt
drive was installed, as the belt can locate where it wants to on the clutch
drum. No alterations were required to
the frame. Simple (well… not really).
By the time the first bike was complete I had amassed sufficient parts to
build another Norsa.
The next one used a 270º crank, because I had it on good authority that
the engine will run smoother. This of
course made engine building a more
complicated matter, with custom
camshafts and a computer controlled
ignition. The resultant package works
ok, but it is a whole different machine.
The most problematic issue is the incredibly difficult kickstart pressure
required to kick over a 270º engine
configuration. Why this should be,
I do not
know.
The motor needed to be rebalanced to
suit the solid mounting. Kibblewith
valves, Johnson cam and Hepolite pistons were fitted, but the engine is basically in stock configuration. The later
model front suspension was installed
and a Grimeca four-shoe brake provides better stopping power.
NORSA!
a Commando
powered BSA
A-10!
…bow to its
beauty
From the day that the Norsa fired up it
was a happy bike—it handled, it
makes gobs of torque, and it has run
faithfully for the past 30k miles doing
everything and more that was asked of
it. Which, of course, is why I had to
mess with a perfectly good set up, and
try to improve on it with the next one.
With English bikes, one solution creates two problems.
The solution to the wounded knee
syndrome was to fabricate an electric
start using the Old Brits outrigger
bearing and starter mounting bracket.
This includes installing a ring gear on
the back of the clutch. This required
skills way beyond my capabilities.
Fortunately, Leia Armitage can expedite such machining tasks. Bless her!
One cannot just build a bike—parts
are accumulated in job lots with specific parts added, along in the process.

Nomads in Normandale
by M. James
Eelko Byker, our Niagara Ride Coord,
who knows these roads like the back
of his riding glove, will be planning out
some amazing twisties along the
shore of Lake Erie with some fantastic
food and coffee destinations. The resort itself, which was originally discovered by Emily, is truly hidden in a pine
forest and is super beautiful, modern
and comfy. There are 7 tent sites and
26 RV sites and we are situated in the
back corner of the trailer park —
where, because of Friday the 13th,
they are use to motorcyclists. In addition, there are two trailer homes that
will sleep 4, one of which I have already rented. If you book early online
(see op. p.) you could get up to a 20%
discount. !
the Normandale Inn is right near by.
And of course we’re 22 min. away
from Port Dover and everything it has
to offer. Our breaky run will be to the
famous Dover Dairy Bar. Norfolk
County Tourism has already donated
maps, shammies and swag bags.
Town Moto will kick in some really cool
Campfire Prizes.!
— Are you seeing a pattern here: Nomads,
Normandale, Norfolk, Nortons, North Carolina…?
!
The Dark Café Run is a must to clear
your pipes for the big events that follow… Ross Thompson & Peter Turner
have already booked at the KOA in
North Carolina. And Dom Aiello, NY
chapter prez, has indicated that the
Regional Rally will be repeated this
year, only at an even better location.
Maybe we should call it the Repeat
Rally or the Rumoured Rally? !
Friday night chilli will be cooked up by
master chef, John Cooper. 5 minutes
down the road is a public beach and

How Not to Start a
Norton or Why they
call them Notruns
Kick starting an old beast, such
as a Norton, can bring joy—sweet emotions upon success, or the opposite...
frustrations, disappointments, re-thinkings, adjustments, trying again, sweating,
swearing, confusion, peeling off layers of
clothing, apologizing to other motorcyclists nearby waiting for the magic to occur. Ideas such as Why me? Why won’t
you start ? I need you to go, not later today, but right now (Please). Didn't I just
buy and fit a whole pile of part$ to you
and this is how you reward me? I love
you, but for the love of God, please just
start! More kicking, followed by more
sweating. Rest and rethinking, wiggling of
wires and letting fuel evaporate from
cylinders whilst pulling spark plugs to
clean of fuel.
!
We should all be so lucky. Sat. Nov. 8th
I awoke to 7ºC after heavy rain at night,
pulled off the cover and performed the
regular procedure to start up Crazy Combat. Oil was thick and cold, kicker was
wet and, most importantly, I was attempting this startup wearing thick soled runners. Boots were upstairs and I had neglected to put them on. Big no-no. Raised
the pistons by prodding to T.D.C., carbs
ticked with choke on, no throttle, big kick
down—no action. Again—nothing. Once
more thinking wetness—nothing. A rest,
then super high-up kick down with all my
weight and effort—locked leg. Slipped
right off the wet kicker, straight into the
pavement. Heard a crispy-crunch sound
followed by a wave of sweat, then came
the pain from the upper tibia area below
the knee. Slumped over the bike, still on
the side stand, thank God. Neighbours
rescued me to Toronto Western for superb
quick service (because I was polite and
cheerful, unlike others there) where they
fitted a cast. The new casts (fibreglass)
are water-activated to set in under 5 mins.
and no fumes. 1 month later they cut off
the top part. 1 month later removal & over
to air-boot. 2 wks. later now booked Mexico to do physio by walking a beach. !
Hope you all learned something
here —as I inspected wirings to find alternator leads loose, resulting in an undercharged battery. Looks to be that simple. The beach walker,

Thomas Zumpe’s
1974 850 Interstate
Where did you find the Tank?
I bought this bike for this reason: 850
Norton Commando Interstate. It holds 5
Imperial Gallons and is a great road trip
bike platform. I love this bike for long
distance driving and put 21,500+ miles
on the odometer as of this write up.
Type of Tires?
I use the Avon 100/90-19” AM-26 Roadrider Universals… both front and rear. I
replaced the original rusty WM-2 rims
with Morad aluminum WM-4 width rims
and included stainless steel spokes from
Walridge Motors. Avon recommends a
2.5” rim width for this tire and I find this
combination to give very good handling
and a stable bike at speed and also in the
rain. This combination fits the 850 front
fenders, but may not fit earlier 750 fenders.
!
Where did you find this machine?
This is not my first and only Commando… I have a few. I bought this bike in
2010, from a guy in St. Catherines, for
about $3000 with 21k miles on it. I believe I am the 6th owner according to the
vehicle history log. I have a few other
Commandos in Roadster tanks, but I always liked the look of the Interstatetanked Commandos.
!
It ran okay when I checked it out, and it
was certified, but was slightly smoking at
startup on one cylinder. It came with
balanced cross tube headers for a Roadster-style peashooter muffler system (not
the standard Interstate straight low
pipes). I drove this bike for about two
years in this state, but I realized that it
needed to have the engine going over to
gain any confidence with distance riding. In the interim, I removed the engine and
put a spare ’73, 850 engine into this bike
while I completed the rebuild to the original engine. I put 18,000+ miles on that
’73 engine during that time. I replaced
parts that were worn or not quite right
and upgraded as I saw fit.
!
I use one AM26 Universal tire per year on
average by doing the following: When the
rear tire gets to the wear bar, I remove the
front tire and move it to the rear and
place a new skin on the front. The rear
tire always wears out first, but I always
have fresh skin on the front for stopping.
I use Michelin Airstop butyl inner tubes,
which never leak. 13
Type of Brakes?
Modified Stock Commando 72-74 brake
system.
1. I use the stock cast-iron front disk,
which I have lighted with holes. I bored
12 large .9060” equally divided holes in
the centre of the disk, just inside of the
friction pad contact area. I have 4 inline
0.200” holes in a backswept array in 12
sets on the brake pad contact area. These were all slightly chamfered to stop
stress risers. This was blanchard ground
and, finally, nickel-plated. I am using Ferodo Platinum front pads.
The stock master-cylinder is modified
from its original 0.625” bore using the
RGM 13mm (0.520”) relined bore kit.
This greatly improves the front brake feel
with two finger stops. Nice!
2. Rear Drum is stock, except that I have
narrowed the sprocket to run a DID 520
X-ring chain. Ferodo platinum drum
shoes. 3. And finally a 06-0704 rear brake pedal
return spring. (Just in case the rear cable
breaks).
Carburettors and reason for choosing?
I like the Amals. I use original, but modified 32mm Amal Mark1 Concentrics: I had
Bruce Chessell re-sleeve the original
carbs. I replaced the needles and needle
jets, plus used stay-up floats and aluminum/viton tipped float needles. These
are simple and easy to adjust. I get great
performance and excellent fuel mileage. On a trip with this bike to the east coast
and back, just shy of 4000 miles, I averaged 68 miles per imperial gallon.
What modern upgrades have been
added?
What I stated above/+ Where do I start?
H4 head lamp, Podtronics single-phase
voltage regulator, Bulbsthatlast4ever
[British Cycle Supply], rear brake light
L.E.D. system, L.E.D. lamps on instrument clocks. Lansdowne fork damper
kit, hydraulic SS brake line. Dave Taylor
head steady. Mark3 vernier iso adjusters. Pazon sure-fire EI, Megacycle
14
560NR cam, Black Diamond valves/
guides and pushrods, Steve Maney belt
drive, Comstock hydraulic cam chain tensioner and crankcase reed valve. IKON
rear suspension shocks, super blend lay
shaft bearing and a bunch of CNW bolts
and bits of stainless to add to bling and
reliability. What makes this machine unique?
It is a mix of Interstate and Roadster with
the exhaust system. It’s probably the only
Commando in Ontario with WM4 19”
rims, both front and rear.
What is the latest repair?
Rebuilt engine… all good so far. Changed
the tires with new skin on front wheel and
old front to rear in anticipation to ride to
Barber Motorsport Park. But work
stopped me from traveling. Maybe I will
do it next year.
What is the next mod?
1. Search for steel Interstate side covers.
2. Search for fairing to cut wind and fit the
part of a Commando Interstate. Repaint
frame and sundry parts black. Repaint
tank, fairings and side covers to match.
Where can we expect to see you and
said machine next?
Dark Café Run, Paris CVMG Rally, New
York regional rally… INOA rally, Barber
Motorsport Park. Predominately somewhere in Southern Ontario where I will
keep on keeping on… I don’t want a pickle… I just want to ride my motorcikle…
A happy camper
