Norton V4SS

Is this yet another attempt to cling on to the illusion that the great and holy SG "knew nothing about this"? The man is a criminal- accept the facts.
I don't think there is much doubt about the situation but a good lawyer will make arguments of that nature of MxMartins and much more. The fingerpointing and sidestepping are about to begin, aided by fading of memories, contradictory stories and the presence of persons unknown at many important events.
 
I think it will all come to light.

IF a V4 was in production properly, there will be a traceable trial that shows the forks (or whatever) were ordered, paid for, delivered, etc.

It might not be possible to account for every nut and bolt, but the big ticket items, especially in a low volume / low cash company, will be traceable.

Therefore, if a bike was built with big ticket items that are not traceable... and those same big ticket items are missing off of a customers bike, you don’t need to be Inspector Morse to put the two situations together.
 
If it has a VIN then there will should be a build record including quality sign off and road or rolling road test plus the despatch date. Trouble is should seems to have been an untranslatable foreign word in Donington.

we need to have a “ Un like “ function on this forum now
 
So it was Norton that sold the rights and tooling for the 961 to China before the axe fell, wonder which bank account the fees went to ? Not the Norton company accounts I guess.

No, I just don't throw accusations about until proven facts materialise. I have nowt good to say about SG so why you have assumed otherwise beats me, many know my feelings when the 50th anniversary get-together was promised and failed to materialise.
 
Taking delivery of a new V4 SS. What a proud moment.
Yes it must of been for that initial bunch of guys in December 2018 , like finding out you’ve won the lottery , then watching someone tear the ticket up , sick feeling in the pit of your stomach comes to mind
