Anyone ever seen one of the 2005 and newer Nortons that are made in Portland, OR in person? They look beautiful in the glamour shots they have on the website...


Yes, one was on display at the Larz Anderson classic bike show in Brookline MA a couple years ago. Seems the primary investor in Kenny Dreer's (unfortunate) failed bid to resurrect the marque was an anonymous Norton nut from here in MA. I'm sure anyone who followed this 8 year progression toward failure shares my despair. On the bright side, makes my cafe racer that much more rare.
