The Appeal

The Norton 16H is among the most recognisable British motorcycles of the post-war era. The side-valve 500cc single saw extensive wartime service before continuing in civilian production until 1954, and examples such as this 1950 model are increasingly appreciated by collectors and riders alike.

This particular 16H is UK-registered and the vendor reports it to be in very good overall condition. With the desirable sidecar included, it presents a tidy opportunity to acquire a well-regarded classic British single.
