INDIA NORTON ON WAY

They’d better sort out the oil cooler / mudguard interface cos those India roads will smack the hell out of that oil cooler if they don’t !!
 
built around "traditional norton featherbed frame" ?! ~2:37
 
lol, check out the subtitles! Impressed at how close computer voice to txt software has got - but it can’t quite cope with an Indian accent. If it’s a human then shame on them!
 
I like the guy's energy in the video.
However, there were some errors in details:

1. He said the Dominator's tank is large and all chromed. It's polished aluminum.
2. He said the engine is NOT unit construction, but has a separate engine and gearbox.
3. He states that the Norton can put to shame any sportbike. Really? Aesthetically I agree, but such a statement requires the tongue be planted firmly inside one's cheek.

If the 961 is a hit in India, I'm sure they will build them there to improve the profit margins on the bike.
 
I was under the impression that their 650 twin would be built in India, not the 961 or the V4.
 
650 twin in China but not as a Norton, looks like this Indian distributor is going to assemble the 961 but does it come as a box of parts or a knock down kit with large sub assemblies.
