OK, my maths was a little rounded up- it was never one of my strong points! Which is just one of the reasons I’ve spent most of my formative years (and those since) buying bikes that I really should’nt have 😄!

You know, I do kinda wonder what I'd do with a Manx.

Like, I'm probably not going to ride it. If I put aside the fact I could likely sell it and just buy a 961 Dominator with change (could I? in Australia I'm not sure.) I don't see why I'd choose it over the Dominator.

I think I'd rather have the Dominator, if not only for the reason that I can't think of a reason why I wouldn't.

Because the Manx is a race bike and has dominance racing history. The 961 Dominator doesn’t have anything.

The Manx would kill a 961 on the track.
 
Sell the Manx Gj, buy a Dommie (if ya could find one) and pocket a chunk’o’change!

The would Domi get registered and be ridden. That's not just anything; that's a lot.

I would gladly suffer the significant wrath of the wife in the entirety of her Glaswegian glory, to ‘accidentally‘ buy a Dommie!

Never hit the 2nd hand market over here though - too few exported. You’ll never see one on the road:(!

I share the dislike of modern plastic fantastics (mostly at least).

But the Dommie is very much ‘over styled’ IMO.

“All fur coat and no knickers” as my Dad likes to say !

Hey… this is the ‘disagreement forum’ …
 
I've only ever known two Manx Norton's used on the road in the UK
One was years ago and the old boy that owned it was getting on
He said if it didn't start on the second bump he would put it away

At the Cassington Red Lion's Norton day in May there was Patrick Walker engined "Manx" (ridden in by a neighbour) a Summerfield engined "Manx" and a "Molnar" engined one.
Not true Norton Manxs I know.
