Is it a bird? Is it a plane? Is it a Norton?

It's a lovely bike but this whole Norton / Garner caper is starting to get on my nerves... we're doing this, we're doing that, blah blah. Where are the bikes?

But hold the front page! They made their own wheel spindles!!! Ace - I hope to make my own wheel spindle in the coming weeks, I look forward to coverage in the national motorcycle press, print and online.
 
Agree with Pic about this.
I was really hoping that Norton was truly back when this started up a few years back but nothing but talk on the racing front and seemingly hassles on non-delivery of road biks and tales of problems with owners getting refunds.
Bikes were at the TT before but from memory they ran a couple of laps in testing but that was it.
Just waiting for the news that the train has hit the buffers any time soon. :(
 
I agree they've over-promised and under-delivered. It's all very good saying you are going to go prototype racing in MotoGP but to then cobble together a parts bin special for road racing? There is a little bit of a difference there.

There is an explanation though, it's just a matter of whether you believe it or not...
