You summed it up well Jan ( he was taking notes) more on the ball than me obviously, here are some pics of the day , astonishing amount of equipment/machinery there , they are here to stay
Exactly my thoughts. Not many of that crew would be on a v4 bike. I wouldn’t imagine anyhow.From the photos, I would say prehistoric to neolithic.
Oh, I don't know 'bout that.Exactly my thoughts. Not many of that crew would be on a v4 bike. I wouldn’t imagine anyhow.
Most likely at least one will be an EV.I’d be (very) surprised though, if the 3-4 new bikes in development are not aimed at broadening the demographic, model type and reach of the customers pocket. Will one be electric at this stage?
Hi Stu , So you were there ? What did you think of the quiet engine ? Did anybody get to drive a 961 ?This lot was tougher than me....I quickly went back indoors out of the cold
40-80, with majority 55-70 I would estimate. The only younger ones were staff showing us round...!Just curious, what was the age range of the visitors?
No rides, just sitting on a running bike and in and out of first gear.Hi Stu , So you were there ? What did you think of the quiet engine ? Did anybody get to drive a 961 ?
That is going to depend on what is in the contract, invariably there is a clause detailing which countries law are to used in the case of a dispute. This will have to be England & Wales for this to stick, if its Chinese then does Chinese law have the same rule on contracts and insolvent companies.I think item #5 is a fantastic idea.
If Norton can wrest back the rights to the 961 motor, then it becomes easier to make refinements without the threat of suffering legal liabilities to Jinlang.
I can't see anything wrong with this setup tbhLooks a tad more professional than the Donington set up! View attachment 102923View attachment 102924
Remember it well. Had a ’factory’ tour in 2016. Tank fabrication and welding in a damp tent with engine building and final assembly in a carpeted ‘open office’ space in Hastings House. Not a patch on quality from Dr Bobs current ’ Shirley Temple’ facilities but added flavour in the Donington bikes.Looks a tad more professional than the Donington set up!
