The 2013 Domiracer is built around the new 961cc Norton Commando engine and features a specially designed featherbed style tubular frame. The new bikes bodywork is made up of a lightweight carbon fibre seat, air box and front fender and a handmade aluminium tank gives it a distinct Cafe Racer style which was the exact intention. The Domiracer was designed to be a modern interpretation of Cafe Racer motorcycles and what better base to use than the modern interpretation of a Norton? “I wanted to build a bike that was the pure essence of a café racer, with no expense spared. The kind of bike that I would build if I took home a Norton Commando and stripped it down to its bare essentials.” - Simon Skinner, Norton Motorcycles
So the Norton Domiracer is a purpose built, high power, bare bones street racer but it has one small problem, it's not street legal. Norton Domiracer First Ride |
