Just saw this on the Norton Owners Club web site:
"On Wednesday 4th March 2020, Her Majesty’s Government published a consultation on proposals to introduce E10 petrol as the standard for fuel across the UK. The lead proposal would introduce a minimum ethanol content of 5.5% for standard ‘premium’ fuels in 2021, whilst - and this is important for historic vehicles - maintaining the current E5 blend in the ‘protection’ grade."

The bottom line seems to be that we are moving to E10 but E5 will be retained for historic vehicles. I'll just keep draining the tank.
