Thanks Bob for sharing - what a fascinating individual Sammy Miller is. 

Tari and I were fortunate to visit his Museum in April 2005.  It was a
Sunday afternoon and the AJS/Matchless Club had a destination ride to the
Museum.

Sammy thrilled the onlookers by riding the AJS Porcupine several laps around
the Museum's courtyard (formerly a dairy operation) - photo attached.

I pulled the some of my photos of the Nortons on display and created the
following short video - enjoy.

Enjoy!

Bob Norum

Nortoneers,

As part of a project to make my mail server, "casano.com", more
standards compliant (and hence have more of my email accepted
by other mail servers), I have modified your mailing list as
follows:

The "Subject" field will no longer be automatically prefixed by [dvnr].

The "From" field will show the original "From" value of the person who sent
the message.  (Formerly it would say "real-name via DVNR".)

Their will no longer be a message footer added that has instructions for
unsubscribing.  However, this information is in the message headers, and
your email client (Outlook, etc) should have a button that says "unsubscribe
from this mailing list" somewhere.

To reply to the entire mailing list, use "Reply-All" in your mail client.
(This is not a change, as that was the prior setting for your list.)

Gents,

Well it is the third Sunday in May.  The weather forecast looks good.  I will be at the Washington Crossing Park at 11AM on Sunday.  If people want to take a short ride or just shoot the breeze at a safe distance, it is all good.  Bring any bike you like.

Until this corona virus pandemic ends, we really can't have organized meetings/lunches.  I thought we had a good response to the virtual Gathering with some unexpected photos by some of our more creative members.

Take this time to do some work on your bikes.  So far I am liking the Amal Premiers on my Combat after some tuning,  I have to use the choke now to start and the idle is now smooth at 1000rpm.

George

We will still meet at the park at 11.  There will be a stop at Orlando's at 1130 if you want to meet there.  No worries the park and Orlando's are both open.

A few DVNRs will be heading to Orlandos tomorrow at 10:00 AM for some antisocial distancing. Looks like a perfect riding day.

Norton Riders,

>From the latest Norton news, NCNO Rolling Thunder is still planned for Sept. 11-13 in Spring Grove PA.  That is not far for most of us.  It is probably at the White Rose Motorcycle Club just outside York PA.

Our May Non-Meeting at the Washington Crossing Park/Orlandos was more successful than I expected with about 15 members in attendance.  I will continue to schedule (weather permitting) Non-Meetings on third Sundays about 3 days in advance to accommodate weather forecasts.  Email me if you have any good COVID-19 safe spots in mind to meet.  Next date is June 21st.

I have been catching up on some Norton work since I am stuck at home.  A leaky head gasket on my Mk3 needed to be addressed.  I was also getting a nice cloud of smoke from one cylinder on start up and some plug fouling.  I had a nice rebuilt RH10 head and new carbs so I was ready for a slight performance upgrade also over the stock MK3.  When I pulled the head off, I noticed a cylinder bore was scored.  Well now the cylinder barrels are coming off too.  So now I am staring at a wiped cam lobe and cam follower and strangely worn pistons.  Full engine rebuild time.  Looks like I am funding Frank Cornwall?s retirement fund at Clubman Racing.

What I have guessed so far.  The pistons were too tight causing strangely worn streaky pistons (internet source).  The head was incorrectly assembled in multiple ways.  Rocker pin flats faced to wrong way and missing heat insulating washers on intake valves.  The rocker pin flats aim the oil to the cam and pushrods.  Interesting that it lasted a long time in this condition.  The bike will be put back together more correctly this time by me.  This is why everyone needs more than one Norton.

George
