Norton Knurled Nut (Dual Seat)
A knurled nut for the dual seat mounting, hand-tightened, no wrench needed.
This is a knurled nut used on the dual seat mounting. Knurled nuts like this are meant to be worked by hand, no wrench needed, which is why the surface has that fine crosshatch grip pattern instead of flat wrench faces. It shows up in the frame and suspension figures in the catalog, which is where seat mounting hardware often gets grouped in these old parts books even though the nut itself has nothing to do with the swinging arm or the shocks.

Our record on this one is thin. The catalog only shows it appearing once, tied to model years 1971 to 1972, so beyond that we don't have more detail on it.
If you're chasing down a seat mounting nut for a bike in that general era, this is worth a look, but give us a call and we'll confirm fitment before you order.
