If norton do well then the world of motorcycles as we know it will change thats for sure. brit engineering and jap technology watch out the rest of ya thats for sure.
But then if Norton and Britten had got together then wow I would have liked to see that
Wasn't Norton the English version of Duckati? Over priced, under performing and unreliable?

Old news. Pics and info have been floating around for a while.
SpondonAsh (Spondon955i) is the guy to talk to about Rotarys.
He and Tracey had a Rotory streetbike and still own
a couple of Race bikes, I "think" one is a Harris and
the other a Spondon. One was part of the team that won the
UK championship.. i think ?
The latest bike is going to do some rounds of the UK series
but I think its not to be awarded point...
Ash ?
Is that right ?

in no way shap or form is norton to be akin to ducrappy.
As for price yeah it's too much but not as much as a ducrappy and performance good bye ducrappy and most if not all jap stuff at the time.
There was not much if anything that could touch it on the track that is why it was banned from the races it was too fast for it's size? apparently [8D]
I've gotta admit Alfie, racetrack only success really doesn't do a lot for me these days, I mean look at Duck's. It's not like it was back in the 80's when superbikes really were much the same bike you could buy off the showroom floor. It's like horses, a good Australian stock horse is a wonderful thing to ride, but a rachorse is a pain in the arse.
Don't get me wrong, I really like the new Triumphs, and they are competitive in the real world that we live and ride in, but I still remember the expensive Commando 850's, that you're average, cheap by comparison, Honda 750 or Kwaka Z9 would eat alive in a straight line, and the Honda was much easier to live with. And rotaries, well I suppose they're a good mid way point for the inevitable change over to electric motorcycles that the green-vermin will eventually force us onto.
Thats fair comment chalk but fuck lets hope that elctric bike dont come around to soon or I might have to go and ride a roo.
Oh yeah thought I would let everyone know my dog is snoring and farting whilst sleeping
Yeah, not happy about the prospect meself. If you want a good insight into the Greenie fraud check out the below link. The book based on this was released at Parliamnt House here last week, and the media vermin gave it one brief report. I never read a newspaper these days without a HUGE amount of criticism, they have gone from reporting the news to creating it, just like any other cheap entertainment industry. About time their 'protected' status was revoked.
