Notes:Designed by the legendary Bert Hopwood and introduced in 1948, Norton’s 500cc twin-cylinder engine appeared in the racing singles’ ‘Featherbed’ duplex frame in November 1951, having debuted in the cradle-framed Model 7. Initially for export only, the newcomer christened the ‘Dominator 88’ was the first production Norton roadster to feature the lightweight, race-proven chassis. Good handling and classic lines ensured the Dominator would do just that.
