Norton
Navigator Gallery
Introduced at
the 1960 Earls Court Show in Standard and De
Luxe versions, the Navigator is a larger version
of the Jubilee, easily recognised by the Roadholder
forks and an 8" Dominator front brake.
It had revised frame geometry for extra strength
and a cylinder block cast in one piece, compared
with the Jubilee's two separate castings; although
both models had two part cylinder heads.
Early versions had a two tone paint job, dove
grey / black on the De Luxe and dove grey /
blue on the Standard. From October 1962, the
Standard's colour options were changed to black
and polychromatic blue, black seats with white
piping were fitted, and after the move to Plumstead
in 1963, production of the De Luxe ceased at
the end of that year. Wider front forks were
fitted and a steering lock, before the last
Navigator came off the production line in 1965.
The top speed is just under 90 m.p.h. with
petrol consumption in the mid '50s or better.
