Yes we were advised on the factory tour last year (June) that the current 961 would run out this year.
I hope that Norton finally release their hold on 961 spare parts.
The Norton 961 may live longer than we thought ?
“The Norton V4SV, V4CR and Commando 961 are revered the world over as the latest in a long line of iconic Norton motorcycles.” Executive Director, Richard Arnold said....
Got a different story when I called last week Cliff - I was heading past Solihull on the way to Heathrow and thought I’d chance my arm at a visit of some sort. Young lady I spoke to stated that absolutely no visits were being conducted and that the place was locked up tight. She also said that “even we’ve been having trouble getting in there” - meaning customer service I guess. Who knows.
! But as Naples is virtually all cobbles that ain’t really surprising!
No, the best one was "Dealers will be offering a select few end-of-production units to collectors" You mean the last ones they can't get rid of?
Not to be a dick or wanker (to cover USA and UK)
, but who is going to buy them? And then to Tony and others who have asked what about parts availability? I know they are "supposed" to have spares but even the UK dealers can't get parts sent out.
Really? They hardly sell the 961s they have now.
Normal fodder on this ‘enthusiasts’ forum I’m afraid!

The point is, TVS will finally move from the Donington era bikes that they just carried over for the last 5 years.
