From the outside with there TT aprances the Norton brand seemed to be going from strength to strength. I was totally fooled. I very nearly took out a loan  to buy a new Norton. I'm so glad I went for the tiger 1200 instead.
I hope someone can take it over and keep the company running. They have come along way from the 1st commandos they were putting out. With the model line up they have now there must be a viable business there with the right person at the helm. And not wasting money running round in flash cars.
