Fixed that...



Did anyone ever buy one of these, or even see one? I can't even remember seeing a road test, apart from possibly in MCN**, but, if it ever happened, they would have hailed it as the future of the industry/best thing since xxx whatever it was like.

IIRC, when sold (if it ever made it to production;it was bloody expensive) it was supposed to come with free servicing, but had to be sent back to the factory. Or was that all a dream?

  • haven't read that for years now; is it still st?
For the OP...

I dont think it ever hit production but in the late 90's/early 00's there was a Norton concept (made by March in California i believe) called Nemesis that had two 750 four pots joined to make a 1500cc V8.
