I Rode Norton’s 206BHP Comeback Superbike… and WOW

The Norton Manx R is finally here… and this isn’t just another superbike launch. With 206bhp from a brand new V4 engine, semi-active suspension, premium components and huge expectations resting on its shoulders, the Manx R has the job of proving Norton is truly back. Over the course of this launch, I rode the bike on the road and pushed it to 170mph on track to find out whether this British superbike is all hype… or genuinely something special. From the intoxicating V4 soundtrack and ballistic torque delivery, to the surprisingly manageable road manners and phenomenal braking performance, the Manx R feels like a very different take on the modern superbike formula. But is it enough to take on Ducati, BMW and Aprilia?
