They ran open maga exhausts. I saw them classic racing in the early 90s at Brands Hatch. So loud. Ridden by old boys and blimey they really thrashed them and leant right over changing off at druids the tight bend they took at 60mph . A hairpin type 30mph bend. A bit crazy like those American flat track racers. ❤
I love Matt's Wheels through time American bike museum. He and hisgreat father Dale who started the museum and the mechanics there are so knowledgeable.
Nice video but a lot of inaccuracies and incorrect clips, you appear to be confused by the Nortons, and The Vincent Black Shadow was never capable of 150 mph, its top speed, claimed by the factory, was 125 mph
The Crighton CR700 is truely amazing but so is the prototype Norton nemesis 1500 V8. Allan Milleyardgenius motorcycle engineer has restored and sorted it out totally.
Made a plastic model of this in the 1970s then while at the Isle of Man TT in the 1990s saw the real one go past me at Ginger corner that made my day magic !.
Even though it's spelled Brough, it's pronounced 'BRUFF'. I remember reading an article in one of my fathers 1950's motorcycle magazines where G. Brourgh's father reputedly said, 'If that's a Brough Superior, I must have made 'Rough Inferior' ?
We have Never heard of? You said? Everyone has heard of Moto Guzzi, and Ariel, and most of the bikes you have mentioned! Apart from that this was quite entertaining.
At 7:45 and 8:13 you called a flathead '45 a knucklehead. I hope you spend a little more time checking pictures.
My friends father Bill Lomas rode the MV V8 in 1962 and clocked 162mph at The Nürburgring. . Saw this bik a few times, beautiful engineering.
Manx Norton Sequence showed a Norton Twin Cylinder. Manx Norton was a 500cc Single.
You're right, and a 350 cc single.

loved the shot of the three MV Agusta's during the Norton Manx segment

The Manx Norton was better known for its handling due to the legendary Featherbed frame
