Well, if he’s that successful, I’m sure Mr Firodia is a very astute businessman. And let’s be honest, that’s a good thing for Norton. As his access to ready cash!
As to the India built 650s, well I’m sure they will cos they’ve been saying from the beginning that they will build in India... for the Asian market.
The rub will come when / if they build them in India AND U.K... and one is 30% cheaper than the other! That’ll be a real test for the ‘Brit bikes need to be built in Britain’ brigade (myself included BTW).
A bit like luxury Swiss watches must be made in Switzerland, I hope Mr Firodia and Co see the value in, and build on, the notion of Norton being a luxury British Motorcycle which must be made in Britain.
Guess we’ll have to wait n see...
