People born in Solihull are refered to as 'Silhillians'. Get the Solihull mug. Solihull is a town in the West Midlands, defined as one of the most prosperous areas of the English midlands. Even though it is near Birmingham, residents of Solihull refuse to accept any link whatsoever to Birmingham.'

"My intention here is to give an official factory response to some of the threads on the forum and help make sure the correct info is available to those who need it / want to listen to it."
Hello from Norton UK
Hi everyone, Just a quick post to introduce myself, and help explain my intentions here on Access Norton. My name is Simon Marshall and I am one, of the small team, of Design Engineers here at the Norton Factory at Donington Hall, UK. I’ve been with the company since early 2012. There is a...
sounds like this bit is no more
Hi Simon, Good to see the factory is interested! I have a new 961 on order and wish to have black forks as on the specials shown at the show, this I am told is not possible! Why? There seems little flexibility as to spec, two colours, that's it, there is small volume involved, it's not a big production line, There seems no interest in being accommodating from a customers perspective. I look forward to your comments. RegardsHi everyone,

My name is Simon Marshall and I am one, of the small team, of Design Engineers here at the Norton Factory at Donington Hall, UK. I’ve been with the company since early 2012. There is a lot of positivity about the brand and the bikes here on the forum, which is great to see, but there is also some miss-information floating around. My intention here is to give an official factory response to some of the threads on the forum and help make sure the correct info is available to those who need it / want to listen to it.
Just a heads up however, I’m only able to help out with 961 Commando and Dominator models that have been built here at the UK factory since 2010, so please don’t ask me anything about sourcing parts for your 1955 Norton, I wouldn't even know where to start !
Hi Simon, fantastic but I send 10 Days ago an email to Norton Factory to have a quote for différent parts…no answer! I understand that customer and owner service was a priority… not really. I always wait. RegardsHi everyone,
