norton
Norton was a British motorcycle marque from Birmingham, founded in 1898 as a manufacturer of cycle chains.
By 1902 they had begun manufacturing motorcycles with bought-in engines. In 1908 a Norton built engine was added to the range. This began a long series of production of single cylinder motorcycles. They were one of the great names of the British motorcycle industry, producing machines which for decades dominated road racing with highly tuned single cylinder engines under the Race Shop supremo Joe Craig.
