So, at the NEC today I was first in the queue for door opening and made a bee line to the Norton stand... straight to the raised plinth with the Superlight on display.
Wow. Honestly, this thing is just stunning, the attention to detail is like something out of a top drawer race shop. The more you look the more you see, and the more impressive it is.
I had a long chat with a certain Mr Garner too. It was really interesting to feel the passion in him, for Norton, for the products and for British industry. And his constant referrals to giving value to the customers too. So nice to see him and Skinner just milling around chatting to customers too.
Then, ‘Forum Rob’ took me through a lot of details of the 650, it’s increase in power is down to having a higher CR, higher lift cams, different mapping, and it also has titanium valves.
Rob then proceeded to take my credit card deposit on a new Superlight. I just couldn’t help myself. I’m not sure where I’ll put it, or what I’m gonna tell the Missus, but I’ll worry about this later.
Here’s some pics for y’all...
