1971 Dunstall Norton Sprint

The sprint is a high performance about-town machine which is fun to ride. It's light weight coupled with the 68 bhp (or 70 bhp) with optional extra alloy cyclinder) makes a really exciting combination. Choice of gearing is important: If you want really brutal acceleration and do not mind a top speed handicap of only 115 mph the 4.84 will provide it. If you are looking for more top speed without too much sacrifice on the way up, specify the 4.56 which gives a useful top speed of 123 mph.
