The Dominator is a twin cylinder motorcycle developed by Norton to compete against the Triumph Speed Twin. The original
Dominator was designed in 1947 and 1948 by Bert Hopwood, who had been on the Speed Twin design team at Triumph. Available
for sale from mid-1949, this design set the pattern for Norton twins for the next 30 years.

Introduced in 1948, Norton's 500cc twin-cylinder engine appeared in the racing singles 'Featherbed' duplex frame in November 1951,
having -debuted in the -cradle-framed Model 7. _Initially for export only, -the newcomer -titled the -‘Dominator 88’- was the first
production Norton roadster to feature the lightweight, race-proven chassis, although the road version used arc-welded mild-steel
tubing rather than the sif-bronze welded high-tensile Reynolds 531 of the Manx.

Shortened Roadholder forks were fitted at the front, while at the rear the swinging arm pivoted on Silentbloc bushes. Motor Cycle
magazine clocked 92mph on an '88' in 1957 and, needless to say, the handling and roadholding were found to be first class.
