That’s what I got done with my domi naked, I have loads of pictures throughout the build.Great value for money alternative to the V4 I’d say , Is it overall similar size wise to the V4 ? ,& when u have ur build slot Nigel,lend the build team a digital camera to record the assembly I’m sure they will oblige.
Congrats on the new machine !!
Is it only available in Carbon or are there any other options? Carbon looks fantasic but I'm just curious.
I think the official line is that anyone asking for that stunningly finished carbon fibre weave to be covered in paint is politely told that “Sir is clearly in the wrong showroom”... whence they are led out of the back door... and shot.
Hello FE , Will you be keeping the 961 ? And if so have you given some thought to making it more comfortable long distance machine ?
I was at the Nec wednesday also.... and i also ordered a superlight..(gonna be as common as muck.... lol) Be aware that although the bike is advertised at £19,950..the one they had on show was approaching £30,000 !... The titanium full exhaust system shown on the bike is £2500 and its a billet swing arm on the show bike - costing £6000- (and Norton are very reluctant to fit one) the standard bike will have a cast swing arm... plus most of the shiny polishing is extra...footrests+ kit, centre part of frame,etc... The Norton guys weren't for mentioning all this until i asked em ! Unfortunately for me, i'm gonna have to sell my beloved cafe racer/SF.... ( i dwelled on it for 4 hours at the show before finally committing)... so anyone interested in a mint bike with all the goodies, and only 1869 miles, look out for a forthcoming ad.
Hi Eddie.... you can get the 'end can' only....i think it was £895 if i remember right... I've gone for the full system...i was disappointed when i found out the billet swing arm was not part of the standard package...but was told the cast one ''could'' be polished up at further expense ...i'm thinking about it... but might go for a painted satin black colour... i like the shiny footrest/brackets though ... The bike will be used purely on the road... should be a great country lane scratcher ! They told me july delivery but i'll take that with a pinch of salt... i ordered my cafe racer at the nec show dec 2009 , promised delivery the following may......and finally got it sept 2012 !! But we'll not bring up sour memories of what Norton were like then,eh?...... As said above , i'm reluctantly having to sell my 961....very sad cos i love the bike...just posted it for sale now.......
