will be seeing the bike on Friday at the NEC and hope that in the flesh it can justify the prce, however to have the courage to tool up and produce this bike deserves the backing of the public and hopefully this will lead tl a long and successful rebirth of the Norton legend.

Over priced toy launched when people are not buying them...
12K for a rehashed old design from the previous brand owners - I see a future and the norton brand will be for sale once again...

The legend is a lost opportunity
Sounds like a lawnmower and looks like it inspires NO confidence in the rider. I am struggling to give any credence to this test ride, as the bike looks like a shed. This was a chance for the Norton name to be revived in the spirit of the original - innovative and capable - what a shame it's a lame attempt at a classic homage, which Triumph has already done properly. As for the price, how many do you get for that?
