Much better looking bike altogether. Too many skinny frame tubes showing on the other one for me.

Norton V4SV: New Norton’s new superbike unveiled

I think that looks stunning. Whether it'll be any good is another matter.

Ugly as fuck. Too much of the skinny frame tubes showing. That silly afterthought panel, under the seat, is a total bollocks. As is the seat itself.. The front caliper looks like a cheap ebay ground anchor,. In fact, the whole front end is a bollocks. And the curves on the tank are shit. My lottery money wont be leaping out to buy one.

Have you seen the Norton Commando Street re-designed by Guy Willison & Henry Cole?

That wanker Henry Cole, gives me the shits. I cant abide the phoney cunt. So don't watch any of his crappy programmes. I did a DGR Southampton ride, with a bloke that bought one of his "Gladstone" Triumph's. What a seriously over priced thing that was. I believe the owner sent it back, because he wasn't happy with it. Henry couldn't design fuck all. He just puts his name on it, and idiots buy them. Sad bastards.Have you seen the Norton Commando Street re-designed by Guy Willison & Henry Cole?

Oh I don't know, I kind of like that V4SV jobbie although there are some things I don't like such as the massive brackets for the brakes and the aforementioned little panels below the seat. I do think they could do something a bit more interesting and stylish with the tank and the sprocket cover is a mess. I would like a bit more rear end on it too. No reason not to give it a decent seat hump which could maybe even house a few tools or a lock. It does look from the images as if it will be kitted out with Brembo brakes.

Proper motorbike nipper. When i was about 5yrs old, a bloke a few doors away had one. I would hear him fire it up, or hear him coming, home, and run up the garden, to the front gate, just to watch him go past. That fucker has got a lot to answer for.

He is long gone mate. As is all the money. Oh well. Move along folks, nothing to see here. On to the next obvious scam. What a wonderful system, we mere mortals have to live under aye.

There is a bizarre deference to ‘telly people’ from Vine to Schofield to Fiona Bruce to Henry Cole as though being the other side of a lens makes you a higher life form. I am sceptical at best but some of them make me actively itch. They have all the appeal of a nasty case of scabies with a light dose of pubic lice. Henry? He’s a bit dull but next to Fillingham of YawnTube he has me positively perched on the edge of my seat!

That is true actually. I had one in the water at the beach. Her indoors, was standing behind me, giving me a cuddle, unaware of what i was doing. As the turd exited, it shot upwards, with enough force to hit her under the chin. Despite my enthusiasm, at the velocity of it's upward travel, she was not impressed. Weird fuckers, women

BTW Fillingham posted a video a year + ago at the beginning of the pandemic predicting it was all over for Triumph (while he gives every appearance of promoting Royal Enfield in a paid capacity) as they laid 400 off at Hinckley….. itself part of the final phasing of offshoring manufacturing.
