The duckhams bikes were indeed twin shock, Hislop was invited to race the spare one, and why the comment was made he would have lapped the tt 2 seconds quicker than on the NRS.

At the classic TT this year they will be racing Borleys bike and why I made the comment, in my eyes it will be extremely embarrassing if the old Norton beets the sg 4 lap times.

Theirs no new F1 engines they simply don't exist it will be done in true rotary racing tradition making do with what you old parts they can get hold of.

Hi Rc588

The one in this article - http://www.motorcyclenews.com/sport/tt-r...lassic-tt/

Whats the history of this machine?, it looks newer than the ones in the background that we all recognise, or is it just new bodywork/decals

thanks

wish the new Norton all the best but from what I have read re orders of 'new' Nortons, things aren't great at Donnington
