One of the most successful roadsters available during the 1950s and early 1960s was the [[Norton|Norton]] Dominator. It caused a sensation when revealed along with the unusual Velocette at the [[Earls Court Show|Earls Court Show]] of 1948. Of 497cc the Dominator was designed by the much respected Bert Hopwood who was formerly associated with the [[BSA|BSA]] and [[Ariel|Ariel]] concerns. His latest creation was to set the Norton design trend for many years to come. In fact, even the last model produced by the Norton company, the 850 Commando, bears a close resemblance to the Dominator. | One of the most successful roadsters available during the 1950s and early 1960s was the [[Norton|Norton]] Dominator.
