Ever since India’s TVS purchased iconic British motorcycle brand Norton in April, 2020, the company has been repairing its public image. After keeping Norton based in the U.K. and expanding its local workforce, TVS opened the firm’s Solihull headquarters and hired new top brass.
Most recently, we’ve seen Norton’s V4SV break cover, but updates on the revived Commando 961 have been few and far between. Back in December, 2021, the company confirmed that it would make good on customers’ Commando 961 deposits submitted during the previous administration. Norton reported that it would fulfill those pre-orders before offering the model to the general public, and the new announcement suggests that time has come.
