Recent Norton built, sold and delivered more bikes than they manufactured. That's skill.

Thanks to removing engines from bikes returned for servicing and popping them into a brand new 'customer just about to collect' machine.

Re: REQUEST LINE: A BOTTPOWER BUELL XB12 BUILT TO SPEC
In 1996 I bought a brand new M2 cyclone, I kept if for 12 months until the warranty expired. Things that I can remember are a complete respray, replacement engine mounts, swinging arm, 2 shocks, 3 exhausts plus other bits I've forgotten. When I had the bike in my posession I used it daily but did twice as many miles on loan Harley's than the Buell. Shame, it was a lot of fun to ride.
