Think my dad's got a Dunstall tuned Norton Dominator knocking about somewhere. He used to race it. Think it's a '55 model.

Hi, do you know where they still sell the humped back cafe racer seats? I could do with one a bit longer than in this photo.

Dresda used to sell them but they have shut now I think, I didn't want a fibreglass type, preferably an aluminium one if they do them. Thanks.

It's a Featherbed frame and a Norton Commando engine.

Hence the Norton sidecase.
