Looks really good retro classic, fair bit expensive. Norton dealer support in Canada is non-existent I believe

 
Maybe I would consider a Norton after they are actually producing motorcycles for a few years but I doubt it.

What does this bike do that is not done better and cheaper by pretty much every other manufacturer?

A 1000cc motor putting out 80hp? 7000 RPM limit? Roughly 25,000.00 cad?

How far down on your list is this bike if you are spending 25 grand?

There are only so many nostalgia sales to be had.

A used BMW r nine t or a Honda cb1100 rs is on top of my "nostalgia" list.
 
I thought this died over 10 years ago, but sounds like they got some more UK government grant money; now they're trying AGAIN with the same thing?

Right on. Or, Triumph Bonneville/Thruxton/Speed Twin, Kawi z900rs, etc etc

Take your pick of which nostalgia style you like, with more power and lower price.

Even a used Ducati Sport Classic would have better parts availability.

This is destined for Jay Leno's Garage exclusively.
 
I’d rather a restored 60s or early 70s commando anyways. Relatively affordable, fun to ride at legal speeds and needs a little love to keep it going.

That’s all the nostalgia I need.

Triumph has done a great job of modernizing retro classics
