Re: New Norton

Yeah saw that on another website the other day, very nice indeed. Looks quite similar to the Ducati Paul Smart replica.

Re: New Norton

yeah I know we're not in the seventies anymore and it's good to see the name back, but....... I still prefer the look of the real one. Not that with my taste for the bargain basement it's ever going to present me with a dilemma

Re: New Norton

Ooh that is nice clarkee.

Saw a bbc news report this morning about Norton setting up a workshop/factory in Castle Donington for production I think. Said they'd be taking on about 100 staff.

Re: New Norton

dunno if its just me but as a young boy () it was bikes like norton,triumph bsa etc that had then this kinda allure and would have you sayin to yourself when i grow up thats the bike i wanna ride , and seeing the latest norton models i havnt changed my mind i think they take on a mythical quality or maybe is rememberin childhood dreams

Re: New Norton

I looked at the first picture that came up and thought "Oh yes! Gotta have one". Then I looked at the gallery and I don't like what they've done with the space where the monoshock would be. There's just too much space, as if something is missing.
Anyway here's one I had years ago.
