Pictures of your Norton 961

Dunno, never saw such on any Norton.
But not sure if the gold would contrast well right against the polish alloy cover.
I think it would be nice if the gold logo had a thin black outline around for contrast.
Someone should give it a try.
 
A few managed to get to Welford on Sunday. Good day out with Leicestershire and Northamptonshire NOC

Currently lording it up in Lanzarote atm , mooching along the strip my brain ( which is wired to search out images of 961,s) suddenly became aware of this lovely Manx silver 961 on the menu of this Spanish seafront bar , no doubt there paying a royalty for the privilege ( prob not ) or could face a damning “ Cease & desist “ order ???

Wonder if anyone has ever painted in the engine casing logo in gold? Don’t suppose there’s any historical precedence.

Hi Stu , Great venue ! One of many places I should have visited but did not when I was there. Getting any Thruxtons to elbow you out of the lime light ? Are you or did you bring it to Bike Shed ?
 
It was only a flying visit to the Ace on our way home to Derby. We were on display for three days at the Bike Shed Show, down at the docks. Great event, really enjoyed it. Time now to concentrate on the bike's I've currently got in and what's booked in.

I’m happy that Donington made the Dominator. Curious why TVS doesn’t.

Stu your bike is Beautiful! Congratulations on the turn out and all your hard and successful work. Top notch.

What Voodoo said, and awesome picture - lovin the moody monochrome with a few bikers in the background. Frameworthy!

Agreed about the Dommie - it was sort of the pinnacle of the variants. Norton fixed up the 961 then same same for the Dommie. I can only guess that Dommie sales were too low originally.
