About Us . . .

Phil Radford bought his first Norton in Nottingham, England, in 1972. He'd owned other British bikes, but a friend had a great looking cafe-racer for sale for 75 pounds, and he couldn't resist. "That was a great bike," says Phil. "I rebuilt the forks, the engine, and the transmission. Actually, I converted it back to a standard road model, so it was more comfortable to ride long distances. It was a great bike to take to the Isle of Man TT Races." He did so several times.

Phil has owned many Nortons since then, and enjoyed them all in one way or another. After countless rebuilds and years of mechanical work on every aspect of Norton twins and singles, Phil is considered by many to be "The Norton Doctor." His expertise has gained him many loyal customers.

Phil's main goal is to get you and your Norton out of the garage (or museum) and on the road. "These bikes are for riding," he says. "In good condition, a Norton is hard to beat for looks, sound, and the admiration of knowledgeable aficionados."

Phil is in from 10:00 to 5:00 Pacific Coast time, and is always ready and willing to dispense technical advice and to sell you parts and equipment needed to keep your Norton running well on the road.
