    Love the poem! Thanks. Yeah damn shame the last CEO was a career criminal. I have heard that this new iteration of Norton, even though they have zero legal liability, is offering to do a deal with owners of V4 SS models. Still got to shell out another £10,000 though. I think this bodes well as the company has stated that they will be taking a hit financially with this offer but it does demonstrate a real commitment to restoring the full confidence in the Norton brand.

    One thing I believe we will see a lot more of is niche market companies and high end catering to a fully customized personal service from he factory. Ducati started this with motorcycles a couple of decades ago with buy direct and followed by a guided tour through the Italian Alps after pick-up at the factory.
    Modern manufacturing method means that with good planning this should be available to more people not just the uber rich.

    New developments in battery technology ,(there are more new things than just Tesla's 4680 battery coming out),will certainly mean electric motorcycles could be a much lower cost personal transport especially for inner city use. Maybe not that viable were it gets really, really cold but hey, that's what snowmobiles are for or so I have heard.

    AnyhooI have bought my Lotto ticket.
