180 pages, and more than 150 illustrations and charts, size 8.25 x 10.75 inches. Owners of Norton Commando motorcycles are subjected to considerable confusion surrounding the selection of an appropriate workshop manual from the multitude of originals and reprints that have recently flooded the on-line marketplace. Many of the reprints found on internet websites are from 'bedroom sellers' at enticingly low prices by individuals that really have no idea what they are selling. Many are nothing more than poor quality comb-bound photocopies that are scanned and printed complete with greasy pages and thumbprints and, as such, are deceptively described as 'pre-owned'. In addition, they are often advertised for the incorrect series and/or model years of motorcycles. The Norton Commando model range is especially subjected to incorrect identification by these 'bedroom sellers' and you are encouraged to read the paragraph below to help identify the correct manual for your model. During the 1968 to 1978 Commando model run there were 4 different manuals published by the factory: The original 52 page 750cc manual (part number 06-3062) is applicable to the 1968 to1970 models ONLY that were fitted with the external rev-counter drive and/or the Atlas style exhaust (refer to ISBN 9781588502421). This original manual was followed by part number 06-3419 which covers the 1970 to1973 750cc models ONLY. The next, and most comprehensive manual, part number 06-5146, was published in 1973 and the 850cc data was added making this manual applicable to the entire range of 750cc & 850cc models from 1970 to 1975 (refer to ISBN 9781588502438). Finally, with the introduction of the electric start, left side gear change, rear disc brake Mark 3 models in 1975, a separate manual part number 00-4224 was published which is specific to the 1975 to 1978 MKIII 850cc series from engine no. 325001 & frame no. F125001. We are pleased to offer this reproduction of the Factory Workshop Manual 00-4224 to owners of the 1975 onwards Commando Mark 3 models and we hope that the explanation above removes any doubt regarding which manual is correct for a particular series of Norton Commando model. Models and model years covered in this manual are: - Interstate: 828cc 1975 -1978- Roadster: 828cc 1975-1978- Hi-rider: 828cc 1975-1978- Interpol: 828cc 1975-1978IMPORTANT: Owners of 1968 to 1970 750cc Commando models that were fitted with the external rev counter drive and/or Atlas style exhaust system are directed to our workshop manual ISBN 9781588502421 and owners of the 1970 to 1975 750cc & 850cc models would require our workshop manual ISBN 9781588502438.

252 pages, and more than 240 illustrations and charts, size 8.25 x 10.75 inches. This publication is a faithful reproduction of the 1962-1965 BSA Factory Workshop Manual part number 00-4113 that covers the A50 (500cc) and A65 (650cc) unit-construction twins manufactured between August 1961 through the end of July 1965. It should be noted that BSA model years ran from August through July. For example, the 1962 models were released in August 1961, the 1963 models in August 1962 etc. This can, at times, cause confusion and the only sure method of determining 'what year is it?' is by the serial number. The various engine and frame numbers for the 1962 to 1965 unit-construction twins are shown in the table below. Note that the pre-1966 engine and frame numbers seldom matched. MODEL KEY: C = Cyclone, CC = Cyclone Competition, L = Lightning, LC = Lightning Clubman, LR = Lightning Rocket, R = Rocket, S = Star, SH = Spitfire Hornet, TR = Thunderbolt Rocket. EXTENSION (-) KEY: CB = Cable (Rear) Brake, CR = Close Ratio Gearbox, PM = Police Model, RB = Rod (Rear) Brake, RC = Rev Counter, UK = United Kingdom Model, US = USA Model. 1962 Engine/FrameA50S-CB A50-101/A50-101A50S-RB A50-101/A50A-101A65S-CB A65-101/A50-101A65S-RB A65-101/A50A-1011963 Engine/FrameA50S-CB A50-823/A50-2288A50S-RB A50-823/A50-2701A65S-CB A65-1947/A50-2288A65S-RB A65-1947/A50-27011964 Engine/FrameA50S A50A-101/A50-5501A50-PM A50AP-101/A50-5501A50C-US A50B-101/A50B-101A50C-CR A50B-C101/A50B-101A65S A65A-101/A50-5501A65-PM A65AP-101/A50-5501A65R A65B-101/A50B-101A65R-RC A65C-101/A50-5501A65TR A65B-101/A50-5501A65LR A65D-101/A50B-101A65SH A65E-101/A50B-1011965 Engine/FrameA50S A50A-686/A50-8437A50-PM A50AP-121/A50-8437A50C-US A50D-101/A50B-4001A50CC-US A50B-507/A50B-4001A50C-UK A50DC-101/A50B-4001A50CC-UK A50DC-101/A50B-4001A65S

194 pages, and more than 240 illustrations and charts, size 8.25 x 10.75 inches. In 1945, after the war had ended, BSA resumed production of their civilian line of motorcycles. However, they continued their pre-war practice of publishing repair, overhaul and technical information in the form of individual 'Service Sheets'. These sheets were 'dealer only' publications and, as such, the print quality was at times somewhat questionable. It was not until the early 1960's that BSA eventually started publishing model specific workshop manuals that were available to the general public. Consequently, these 'Service Sheets' were the only publications available for the maintenance and repair of BSA models that were manufactured through the early 1960's. At some point in the 1930's, BSA adopted the practice of identifying their various model types by 'groups' and the models manufactured from 1945 through the mid 1960's were in Groups A, B, C, D and M. The service sheets that were associated to a particular group were identified numerically and, while there were some exceptions due to overlapping data between models, in general terms the numbers relate to a particular model group. They are as follows: The 200 series of service sheets were applicable to Group A models, the 300 series to Group B, the 400 series to Group C, the 500 series to Group D and the 600 series to Group M. In addition, there were a 700 series applicable to mechanical maintenance and an 800 series for electronic service and wiring diagrams. Both the 700 and 800 series of service sheets contained information that was not model specific but was applicable across multiple model groups. Unfortunately, as these service sheets were issued individually and at random times, the numbering sequence within any group is, at times, illogical and not necessarily consecutive. Consequently, assembling those individual sheets into a publication that serves as a model specific workshop manual is a somewhat difficult task and owners of BSA motorcycles are subjected to considerable confusion surrounding the appropriate selection from the multitude of reprints that have recently flooded the on-line marketplace. Many of the reprints found on internet websites are from 'bedroom sellers' at enticingly low prices by individuals that really have no idea what they are selling. Many are nothing more than poor quality comb-bound photocopies that are scanned and printed complete with greasy pages and thumbprints and, as such, are deceptively described as 'pre-owned', 'used' or even 'refurbished'! In addition, they are often advertised for the incorrect series and/or model years of motorcycles. The most complete compilation of the 1945 and onwards service sheets was issued by BSA in the form of a 'dealer only' ring binder that contained all of the individual service sheets totaling to almost 500 pages, it is extremely scarce and difficult to find. This manual contains 59 service sheets (190 pages) extracted from that 'dealer only' publication, which cover the 1945 to 1960 pre-unit, rigid, plunger and swing arm B31, B32, B33 and B34 plus Gold Star and Competition models. Please note that service sheets other than those in the 300 series that are included in this publication may also contain data that is applicable to 'other' model groups, as that was the original intention. For additional information the reader is directed to 'The Book of the BSA 250cc, 350cc, 500cc & 600cc OHV & SV singles 1945 to 1959' (ISBN 9781588502292) which covers the B31, B32, B33, B34, C10, C11, C11DL, M20, M21 & M33 models. For later models see 'The Book of the BSA OHV Singles 350cc & 500cc 1955-1967' (ISBN 9781588501561) which covers the B31, B32, B33, B34 & Star B40 & SS90.
