NORMAN
A rear-sprung version of the Norman Nippy designated S is now available in addition to the solid
frame model R introduced a year ago. The newcomer has plunger-type rear suspension but in all
other respects is similar.
The smoothly styled spine-type frame embodies a one-gallon petrol tank. Front springing is by a
leading-link fork. Tyre sire is 2.00 x 23 in and both mudguards are well valanced. Motive power is
provided by a German Sachs 47 c.c. two-stroke in unit with a two-speed, twistgrip-controlled gear box.
Choice of finish includes burgundy, two-tone blue, or sage green and burgundy.
Prices.
R, £69 19s 6d;
S, £71 19s 6d.
