[QUOTE="Monkeypants, post: 116813, member: 2708"] I was surprised to read that the magnesium Manx engine is 28 lbs heavier than the aluminium 500 Dommie engine. This was one of the reasons that Doug Hele wanted Norton to put more money into development of the twin for racing. They ignored his logic. Re the TTI box fit on a Commando. A friend recently fitted one to his Maney 920 Commando. It required a few minutes with the die grinder to go in. A bit of steel on the cradle had to be removed. Glen [/QUOTE]
