1990 NORTON JPS F1

588cc. This very special Norton JPS F1 is one of 100 made, and there has been just one registered keeper from new. The vendor describes it as a “very original bike”, complete with its iconic John Player Special black-and-gold livery and twin-rotor Wankel engine. Its last 5 MoT tests were all passed without advisories, although the last expired in 2016. The bike has been kept in the vendor's front room for the last 4 years, and we're told it was last run a couple of years ago.

The bike is supplied with a history folder containing a good collection of maintenance receipts, and its original bill of sale from an Essex dealer in June 1990. These are accompanied by a tool kit, spare key, owner's handbook, original JPS Norton marketing materials, 1990 edition of Performance Bikes magazine (containing a review of the Norton F1) and the V5C which records 0 former keepers. The odometer shows 8386 miles.
