1965 800cc P10157 viewsThe P10 1965
In 1964 Norton was considering replacing its overhead valve twins, which were beginning to show their age. The Plumstead factory, also part of the Associated Motor Cycles group, was given the job of developing a new twin. Developed first as a 750 then as an 800 under the code name p10, this prototype was intended for minimum maintenance. It had a unit construction engine and twin overhead camshafts. Its 800cc air-cooled twin cylinder engine was dry sump lubricated; a single center mounted chain drove the twin overhead cams.
