Motoroyale announced its partnership with Norton
Motorcycles in November 2017, and launched its first product in
the country - the Norton Commando 961 Cafe Racer. The company has now launched
the Norton Dominator, priced at INR 23,70,000 lakh (ex-showroom Pune).
The Norton Dominator sources power from a 961 cc,
air/oil cooled, parallel twin engine that is paired with a 5-speed gearbox. The
fuel-injected motor generates 80 PS of maximum power at 6,500 rpm along with a
peak torque of 90 Nm at 5,200 rpm gearbox. The Dominator features retro styling
with minimal body panels.
The Norton Dominator comes shod with wire-spoke
wheels on both the ends to complement the modern-retro design. Suspension duty
is handled by 43 mm Ohlins upside down front forks and an Ohlins mono-shock at
the back with remote reservoir, which is adjustable for preload, compression
and the ride height. Anchorage is provided by twin 320 mm discs at the front
with Brembo 4-piston ‘Monobloc’ radial callipers, and a single 220m disc at the
back with a 2-piston calliper. ABS is offered as standard.
