Norton Motorcycles’ TT Heritage Celebrated with All-Female Legacy Lap Marking 119 Years of History

Norton doesn't hold the most Isle of Man TT (IOM TT) wins; it's not even in the top three. But in terms of being the brand most historically, bordering on romantically, synonymous with the legendary Mountain Course, Norton takes it.

The Solihull-based manufacturer took its first win at the TT in 1907 and had decades of dominance shortly after, but found it hard to come by wins in recent years. So seeing an all-new Norton, in the form of the Manx R, do a lap at the TT is something special, and even more so considering it was in collaboration with the Women Riders World Relay (WRWR).
