What's with that re-invention of Norton (a la Triumph) with a rotary engine? Can't see that appealing to the troops

Hope they dont go with the rotary as the Commando 952 is where Norton will cream Triumph in the Retro stakes.

And i would'nt miss this years classic festival for anything,specially as Kevin Schwantz is riding a Manx as well.
