Guest Nogbad Posted February 21, 2006 Posted February 21, 2006 Norton Rotary. 490cc I think. Is it a prototype of the classic? Late seventies. I could be entirely wrong, I didn't Google this; its out of my head in a spare moment at work.
mdude Posted February 21, 2006 Posted February 21, 2006 Norton P39 Mk1, 1973, 490 ccm "The Red Bike" its correct in alle details except the black silencers, which may point to an earlier protoype...1972? EDIT: it might be the one with 350 ccm... since the 490 migh be a later design.... And since the Norton wasnt a Norton at all, but a Triumph; this is a Triumph from 1975. WTF???
