The bike will also house a twin-pod headlight, LED blinkers, clip-on handlebars, and will ride on carbon fiber wheels.

The Norton V4SS shall be fueled by a 1,200cc, 72-degree, V4 motor that will deliver 200hp of maximum power and 130Nm of peak torque. Details regarding the transmission of the bike are yet to be revealed.

The Norton V4SS is expected to be equipped with Brembo-sourced twin disc brakes on the front wheel and a single disc brake on the rear. We also expect it to offer several electronic riding aids.
