I absolutely love it.  This bike looks a whole lot more serious than their Commandos which look a little bit tall and gawky from some angles.  Yes the exhaust was obnoxious, especially in the second video.  All those super small mufflers sound a little obnoxious, this one more so than most.

I like it.
It's naughty. :D
The pipe would kill me after a while.

Good to see you around Travman.

I've been around, just not posting that much.  I've been busy working and playing with this...

Nice. Barn find?

Looks like a de-commissioned police bike to me.

Looks like a locomotive to me as well.

It is a 1970 Ambassador which has the 4-spd and the 750cc engine. The solo seat and white paint do give it the police bike look. 15K miles on it.

[laugh]  +1,   and a 19th century locomotive at that.
No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori.  Good people drink good beer.  Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.

It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level.  Everything else is just fluff.

Does not feel very "Norton" to me. It looks like Classified Moto built it. But they didnt, so to me it comes off as "look guys, we can be cool and trendy too!"
Norton to me has always been about class. This looks like a bike that took its style cues from shed cafe builders in order to connect with a potential customer base. Lame.
But I'd ride the piss out of it.
