Norton V4SV

THE RE-ENGINEERED V4SV - THE ULTIMATE BRITISH SUPERBIKE

We are excited to announce the launch of our re-engineered V4SV! Inspired by Norton’s 100 years of racing prowess and success at the Isle of Man TT, the new V4SV will be the only British designed and built superbike in production in the UK. The launch of the V4SV is a huge milestone and yet it marks just the first step in our exciting plan for Norton… “Two years ago, Norton inherited the V4 - a bike imagined on the track but born for the road. A bike that promised to blend poise, performance, and power. Over the last 18 months we have worked tirelessly putting this machine through our new world-class facilities in Solihull to proudly deliver on our promise to Norton owners. Thanks to TVS investing £100 million in Norton, and us subsequently investing wisely in our engineering processes and brand-new manufacturing base, we have ensured barely a part hasn’t been improved on from the bike we inherited.” - Dr. Robert Hentschel, CEO of Norton Motorcycles.

The re-engineered V4SV is available in two colour options: Carbon and Manx Silver. The Manx Silver option is finished in striking silver bodywork with red and carbon pinstripes, a black front number board and red OZ Racing forged aluminium wheels. The V4SV Carbon option features exposed carbon fibre body work finish and carbon fibre BST wheels for reduced weight and unrivalled response. Both Norton V4SV colour options feature carbon fibre fuel tank and body work, a TIG-welded aluminium tube frame handcrafted and polished to a mirror finish, and a Union Jack on the tail of the motorcycle.

Elsewhere, to offer the ultimate superbike experience, each model is powered by our very own liquid-cooled 1200cc, 72-degree V4 engine, and optimised to produce 185bhp at 12,500rpm and 125Nm of torque at 9,000rpm. The frame is aerospace graded aluminum, which was designed and developed at the world’s most rigorous race track – the Isle of Man TT. Every V4SV frame is hand-welded and hand-polished at our multi-million-pound factory in Solihull, Birmingham.

Full quick shift and auto blipper system, adjustable front and rear suspension, Brembo disc brakes, a sophisticated lean-angle sensitive traction-control and three engine modes (wet, road and sport) are all offered on this British motorcycle. As standard, the Norton V4SV is fitted with LED lighting for low beam, high beam, indicators and tail light, alongside a keyless ignition system. Also fitted is a full-colour six-inch TFT display, which includes a rear view camera functionality and an under-seat carbon fibre 15-litre fuel tank, with Kevlar reinforcement.

"The V4SV is unlike anything on the market today, by design, but its everything you expect in a bike built by Norton. Short gearing and engaging power make this a perfect bike for the road. This is the ultimate British superbike that will challenge and excite riders from the moment they get on the bike to the moment they get off. It is undoubtedly a beautiful piece of art. We are incredibly proud of what we have produced given the challenges we have faced getting it to the start line" said Dr. Robert Hentschel, CEO of Norton Motorcycles.
