The relaunched Norton project has signed a deal with Menard Competition Technologies (MCT) to produce the engine for the new 961/SS Commando.

MCT expects up to 500 units a year will be built at their factory, housed at the former home of TWR. Charlie Bamber, commercial director of MCT, said: “It’s a great privilege to be playing a role in the rebirth of a brand as important as Norton. We share in the passion and ambition of Norton and know that Stuart and his team are well-placed to build on the legacy of a truly iconic name.”

Stuart Garner, managing director of Norton, said “MCT is one of the world leaders in engine development and the partnership will give us further credibility, as we roll out our Commando range.”
