Norton Will Build a Dominator Street Limited Edition - webBikeWorld

I had to share this article, because Norton has a special penchant for making beautiful things.

It doesn't appeal to me at all, but for those who it does, enjoy.

Nice piece of riding art.

If I could fit my bottom in it comfortably, it could be a fun experience.

Norton name yes, this particular model, not so crazy, 'cos dont't like bikes with mono shock and without rear fender++... Summarized = one contender less.

None of the "new" Nortons appeal to me either.

 

[Stichill]

I like it.

I like it. But sadly I can't refinance the house to afford one.

I'm not really a British bike fan but I think this one is beautiful.

A well done British bike warms the soul. I can overlook the rear suspension choice. I'd ride that down to the hubs and push it to the nearest biker bar in my state and STILL have the coolest bike in the lot.

Now a 74 Norton Commando Roadster with Dunstall pipes, black with gold pin striping,some K81 Dunlop tires, that turns my crank!

I will say that a huge aesthetic failing of these modern interpretations is black wheels. They just don't look good to an eye with any sense of proportion and balance. On this bike, I would say tank "yes" engine "yes" headlight "yes" wheels "no" fenders "no" seat "no" rear suspension "yes with aesthetic reservations".

My favourite aspects is the lump and the chromed tank.

The 74 Commando was the prettiest bike they made. But I had several friends that owned Nortons, so I knew all its faults.
