1966 Norton Atlas Café Racer – frame no. 20 115601 | engine no. 20/115601R
Matching Numbers | 750cc Atlas Twin | Featherbed Frame.

Classic British performance, character, and style.

This Norton Atlas Café Racer is built around what many enthusiasts consider the ultimate pre-Commando Norton combination: the legendary 750cc Atlas parallel-twin engine housed in the renowned Featherbed chassis. Believed to retain matching engine and frame numbers, this machine combines the unmistakable character of a genuine Atlas with a tasteful café-racer presentation and a number of rider-focused upgrades.

Finished in silver with black accents, the bike features a polished alloy Manx-style fuel tank, Smiths instrumentation, wire-spoke wheels, and a belt-drive primary conversion. The result is a purposeful British special that captures the spirit of the original café-racer movement while remaining highly usable and visually striking.

The Featherbed frame earned its reputation as one of the finest-handling motorcycle chassis of its era, while the Atlas twin delivers the distinctive sound, torque, and mechanical presence that helped establish Norton as a dominant force on both road and track throughout the 1960s.

• Matching-numbers Norton Atlas 750cc parallel-twin engine (20/115601R)
