The Interpol 2 is a motorcycle that was manufactured by Norton Motors.
Norton did not sell the Interpol 2 to the general public. Sales were restricted to fleet customers: civilian police forces, military police forces (particularly the RAF Police), and the RAC.
Towards the end of the production run a few machines were built with a new water-cooled version of Norton's twin-rotor Wankel engine. These machines were designated Interpol 2A.
When production of the Interpol 2 and 2A ceased they were succeeded by the P52 version of the Norton Commander.
