RE: Major breakthrough for Norton TT racer?
Using Moto GP engines? Against standard (BSB spec) road bikes? 130mph shouldn't be an issue surely?
The Norton effort thus far has been pathetic, almost an embarrassment. I really hope to see some improvement this year.
Cam Donald is a class rider, and I think he managed only 123mph. Something has to have been way wrong with last year's bike, as Hizzie manage 124mph on a 750 in 1991.....in practice! Admittedly it was the best bike EVER to be raced round the Island, but we are 25 years on now.
I wish Dave Johnson the best of luck. I will be looking at his times closely.
