The Norton Model 88 Dominator, also originally known as the Dominator De Luxe was a 500cc vertical twin motorcycle manufactured by the British Norton Motorcycle Company from 1952 to 1966. It was the first of Norton's motorcycles to use the featherbed frame, which established Norton's reputation of producing fine handling machines. The 88 used the Bert Hopwood designed engine that was first fitted to the Model 7 and was initially for export only. It became available on the home market in 1953. Norton were a small manufacturer at the time and without the economies of scale the model was expensive compared to other manufacturer's equivalent machines. The 88 retailed for 20% more than the contemporary Triumph Speed Twin and was dearer than the 650cc Triumph Thunderbird.

This bike has been previously sold by us but the vendor is having space issues due to work being carried out at his house. It is in lovely condition and comes with full UK V5, clear HPi report, workshop and owner’s manuals.
