Norton Motorcycles, under the guidance of TVS Motors, has recently showcased their latest creation, the Norton V4CR.
- The V4CR joins the Norton lineup as a neo-retro sports naked motorcycle, captivating enthusiasts with its raw power and vintage-inspired aesthetics.
- The V4CR as the brand’s first completely new motorcycle under the TVS Motors ownership.
Derived from the successful Norton V4SV supersports bike, which made waves upon its debut last year, the V4CR boasts striking similarities to its predecessor. The heart of this beast is the same 1,200cc engine found in the V4SV, delivering an impressive peak power of 185 horsepower and a torque of 125Nm.
Furthermore, the V4CR adopts the TT-developed aluminum frame utilized in the V4SV, ensuring an exceptional riding experience.
The V4CR moniker stands for “cafe racer,” alluding to its neo-retro styling that combines classic design elements with contemporary touches. A full-carbon fairing adorns this captivating machine, further enhancing its allure.
Norton Motorcycles proudly presents the V4CR as their first completely new motorcycle under the TVS Motors ownership, following the successful launch of the “re-engineered” V4SV and Norton Commando 961.
“The Norton V4CR is a raw expression of impeccable design and intoxicating performance. We’ve stripped back the outer shell of the V4SV, ensuring an uninhibited motorcycling experience for riders,” said Dr. Robert Hentschel, CEO of Norton Motorcycles.
Attention to detail has been paramount during the creation of the V4CR. Meticulous engineering and design teams meticulously refined every aspect of the motorcycle, from initial sketches to concept production and final finishing touches.
This bike represents the culmination of Norton’s learnings and investments over the past three years, providing a tantalizing glimpse into Norton’s future.
Hand-built to perfection, the Norton V4CR comes equipped with top-of-the-line features, including Brembo brakes, a quickshifter, and auto-blipper for seamless gear shifts, as well as billet aluminum machined yokes, aluminum OZ racing wheels, and Ohlins suspension.
Production will be limited to a mere 200 units, making each V4CR an exclusive gem for discerning riders. The price tag for this extraordinary machine stands at GBP41,999 (RM240k) per unit.
