Norton Siapkan Mesin 1000cc V4 Untuk MotoGP
Inggris - Setelah Stuart Garner membeli seluruh aset Norton di tahun 2008. Nampaknya semangat pabrikan asal Inggris ini kembali membara. Salah satu niat yang paling bersar adalah berpartisipasi di ajang MotoGP. Tentunya ini menjadi keuntungan tersendiri bagi MotoGP, mengingat banyak tim yang mundur dari akibat tak sanggup dengan biaya operasional yang tinggi.
Tapi Norton tidak sendiri, melainkan bekerja sama dengan Inmotec yang merupakan tim balap asal Spanyol. Dan proposal kerjasama dengan Inmotec juga menjadi angin segar, pasalnya dengan cara ini mereka bisa mewujudkan mimpi untuk bertarung di kelas para raja.
Namun niat tersebut baru akan terwujud tahun depan alias di MotoGP musim 2012. Norton pun sudah mulai mengembangkan mesin berkapasitas satu liter dengan konfigurasi V4. Tentunya untuk menyambut era balap MotoGP 1.000cc, yang akan dimulai tahun depan.
Bukan hanya faktor kerjasama, namun juga sebagai ajang promosi yang besar bagi Norton. Soalnya mereka sedang giat-giatnya untuk kembali eksis di bisnis motor. Bahkan menggandeng mantan CEO Ducati, Dan Van Epps untuk menjabat sebagai kepala cabang. Nantinya ia akan bertugas mengawasi dealer-dealer yang tengah dibangun di Amerika saat ini.
Ayo� siapa lagi yang mau ikut MotoGP 2012? (otosport.otomotifnet.com)
In an effort to expand its grid size, the MotoGP is planning to change the rules and allow 1000cc engines to race in 2012. When this happens, the grid could have its first new entrant from Norton Motorcycles.
Most people don't think of the Iconic Norton brand when they think of motorcycle racing, but Norton has a long history of success on the track, even if most of it came during the 1950's. Norton has not raced competitvely for the past decade, but reportedly, Norton has reserved two spots on the 2012 MotoGP grid. Norton is currently developing the NRV 700 race bike, which will be the bigger brother of the the NRV 588.
Stuart Garner bought the rights to Norton in 2008, and since then the British brand has been back and producing motorcycles. A spot in the MotoGP will be an ambitious move for Norton, but it will also benefit the MotoGP by bringing a British Manufacturer to the paddock.
Norton, the Lazarus of motorcycling, continues to gain steam with its MotoGP project, as the latest news is that the British company is working on a 1,000cc V4 for its racing platform, which will debut in 2012 when the pinnacle of motorcycle racing reverts back to a liter bike capacity. Rumors had swelled that Spanish MotoGP hopeful Inmotec, who consistently fails to get its bike on the GP grid, could link up with Norton, likely in helping the British firm design its motor.
We don�t know if that partnership ever materialized, but MCN has snagged a CAD drawing of a Norton V4 motor that presumably is for the new GP bike. Initially the MotoGP race bike was expected to lay the tracks for a production sportbike, which could bode well for Norton fans who wanted something more than just a run-of-the-mill inline-four.
Norton has already made tremendous progress as a company in its short two years of rebirth under Stuart Garner. Just recently the British company announced that it had retained Pierre Terblanche, which virtually guarantees a unique design coming forth from the historic brand. Norton has also begun setting up shop in the United States, appointing former Ducati CEO Dan Van Epps to head the branch.
Despite the motorcycle industry�s near apocalypse, Norton has been flourishing with growth. Time will tell if the Brits can hold onto the momentum they�ve generated, but it certainly be exciting to watch. Stay tuned Norton fans.
