About the 1968 P11A Norton desert racer

1968 P11A Norton desert racer

Norton’s lusty 750cc P11s are rare, but the Museum has acquired all four variants of the made from 1967 to 1969. The export-only twins were designed for cross-country racing across the deserts of America’s far-Western States. Recently arrived is the third “desert sled”  to go on display, a 1968 P11A. This second version of the potent P11 has a longer seat than the original and pillion footrests, to make it suitable for street use, as well.
