With this special edition of the 961 Commando Cafe Racer, Norton wanted to pay tribute to one of its emblematic pilots: Mick Grant. As a brand development pilot, he wrote one of the most beautiful pages in the history of the 750 Commando. In 1972, he teamed up with Dave Croxford and won the famous Thruxton 500 race.
Much later, he collaborated with Honda to develop the surprising NR500 with oval pistons..

Coiled in blue and white, the decoration of this replica proudly displays the n ° 7. However, Mick Grant mostly ran with the No.10. Why a different numbering? Because the English driver has won the Tourist Trophy 7 times, and this Norton will only be produced with 7 copies. Scarcity will only have low inflation on the factory price. This one took care to offer, in addition to the dress, some carbon parts which are the mudguard, the nose screen and the chain protection, a black finish for the exhaust line, and to conclude in style, the pilot’s signature. Moreover, each buyer will have the opportunity to meet Mick Grant at the factory when he comes to pick up his copy..

Like the standard Cafe Racer, this very limited 961 commando is equipped with Ohlins suspensions of the most beautiful effect, full radial Brembo braking, superb spoked rims fitted with sport tires, an engine full of emotions. and a more than attractive silhouette.
