For some reason the majority of Norton owners love modifications ie improvement of the breed.


 I remember years ago going to a Vincent meet with my late good friend a brilliant self-taught engineer and artist. He was riding his stunning D series  Black Shadow. When we arrived it didn't take long for a crowd to gather around and the criticism was unbelievable it was so pathetic and nit picking. That's the wrong screw, the speedo is at the wrong angle, looks like the wrong shade of black etc etc, it went on and on for what seemed like ages.  I'm sure it broke his heart, he never rode it again and sold it the following year, he pasted a couple of years later.
