Get your reading glasses on and learn a thing or two

Just dropping in with some genuine NOS (new old stock) Lucas switch gear.

Fitted to Norton, Triumph, and BSA models from 1971, this is the dipswitch flipper with push buttons for horn and high beam flash. Comes complete with righthand side lever bracket clamp (easily left side swappable). Original heavy duty wiring loom colours and connectors.

This stuff is the real McCoy...

All those special bits and pieces your bike always wanted...
Quality items to make your special bike a little bit more special...

Updated Sunday, August 30, 2026: We have just landed a serious job lot of Norton and Triumph parts and bikes from a local collector buy out. A lot of this stuff is NOS (new old stock), and unlikely to come up for sale again. It is slowly being assimilated into our stock system, but if there is something specific you're after just give us a shout.

At British Spares, we pride ourselves on being in a constant state of flux.. To misquote the great Dr Emmett Brown, 'The way I see it, if you're gonna build a time machine, why not do it with some *style?* Great Scott, if my calculations are correct, when this baby hits 88 miles per hour... you're gonna see some serious shit.' He may have been talking about the DeLorean, but most of us are building time machines with these bikes too...

if you need something else, give us a shout.
