Norton

[Polarbear]

I don't know if this is news, old news or just wishful thinking but I came across the Norton website while surfing

https://nortonmotorcycles.com/

Norton resurgence starting in 3 months 18 Days and counting.

I suppose it will be another farcical attempt to sell very pretty but ridiculously expensive bikes to mugs with lots of money. If I had money to burn I'd love that black and gold Commando but it aint ever going to happen.

I doubt I could even afford the feckin tee shirt !

I'm cynical, It all looks too typically pretty with the usual

why onto add Queers for Palestine and
Trans pride men are really wimmin month too?

I'm not sure they went anywhere? They are owned by TVS motor which is an Indian industrial concern. They have recovered from the pension fund nonsense now, and have been producing bikes for quite a while. Maybe this is a new website? a new range of bikes? Who knows.

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.

I think the website marketing department fucked up. The very first page I clicked through to comes up with an instant stop use recall, informing you that a starter issue may result in the vehicle coming to a sudden stop during operation!
Possibly not the best way to market your goods!!
