Norton's P11 'desert
sled' was one of the British industry's inspired
compromises. Something of a 'parts-bin special'
it was a mix-and-match combination of parts
from Norton and parent company AMC, designed
to suit the American market and originally for
export only. The result was so good that the
few that found their way onto British roads,
rapidly achieved cult status. With the enormous
popularity of powerful off-road twins that began
in the 1980s, it can be seen as a machine that
was way ahead of its time. More Norton
