Looks like a set of XS-1 fork ears. No starter and dual cables. Might be a few nice parts there Not worth paying a bunch of money for.(edit) might be a starter button on that set of controls.
 
I think I have a good chrome shop, I don't think they are cheaper than others...
It'll be May before I get the stuff ready, but I'm always looking for first-hand recommendations of a good chrome shop (not cheap). 👍

I've asked Halfmile & Bowling, but haven't heard who they use (hint).;)
 
Attention Norton fans.........Dunno, but this bike appears to be "the shit" of that model. Four bidders so far, 2 days left..........$16K ??

Fine machine -- best seen so far
If the paperwork adds up Off the rebuild this one is worth more than seen previous
Runs better ..Not perfect but better .
The idle is set to low .but one can hear that the engine is Tight.

Here this would bring a premium would not be surprised it hits closer to 20 k
If the low mileage end shop rebuild is truthfully.

I get the impression you over there pays more for Norton's 1.5 --2 x more and less for XS 650 s
than here.1/2 to 3/4

10 k for a Norton is much unless it is mint as this ..But perhaps I am living in the past

THIS one can be expensive at the end.
 
Man, what a sad demise to a TITLED bike. 😢

Worst thing is, its just down the road from where I live...just saw this ad this morning. I'd really like to get that vintage license plate frame for one of my other 650's. 😳

If I were still younger and had the energy, I'd snag this bike for the titled frame and hodge podge a bitsa together out of that Standard frame. 🤔
