| EXPLANATION: |
We have received a considerable number of enquiries for the parts necessary to incorporate the new Norton-Lockheed hydraulically operated disc brake on a Commando previously equipped with the cable operated drum brake. In view of this interest, we have introduced a disc brake conversion kit under part number 063412 which incorporates all the parts needed for this conversion. The kit is offered at a very attractive price and the following list shows the parts incorporated in the kit which is in the form of a cartoned semi-display pack:
| Qty | Part Number | Description | | 1 | 061950 | Rim and hub assembly c/w bearings | | 1 | 062448 | Spacer R.H. | | 1 | 061885 | Disc | | 5 | 061960 | Stud | | 5 | 27815 | Nut | | 5 | 22528 | Washer | | 1 | 063316 | R.H. Slider | | 1 | 061926 | Caliper assembly complete | | 2 | 070029 1 | Screw | | 2 | 26634 | Spring washer | | 2 | 063031 | Pipe clip | | 1 | 061938 | Master cylinder assembly | | 1 | 062707 | Hose assembly | | 1 | 26634 | Washer | | 1 | 060347 | Nut | | 4 | 062241 | Screws | | 1 | 062524 | Cover, stop switch | | 1 | 061934 | Lucas stop switch | | 1 | 040606 | Copper washer | | 0631 II | Tin of brake fluid |
Dealers will note that the incorporation of the disc brake on a new unsold motorcycle has the twin benefits of increasing saleability and also of releasing for resale the new parts which become displaced during the conversion.
