Norton Manx R First Ride Review | India-Bound 206bhp British V4 Superbike Tested in Spain
The all-new Norton Manx R marks the return of Norton Motorcycles into the superbike world under TVS ownership, and this is the flagship Signature variant equipped with carbon fibre bodywork, carbon wheels, semi-active suspension, and a 1200cc V4 engine producing 206bhp. In this first ride review, we head to the Monteblanco Circuit in Spain to test the Manx R on track before taking it out onto the stunning Spanish countryside roads to understand what this motorcycle is truly all about. Unlike most litre-class superbikes that are built purely around lap times and aggressive performance, Norton says the Manx R focuses more on real-world rideability, accessible performance, and rider engagement. So, how does it deliver on that promise? In this video, we talk about the design, features, V4 engine’s character, track performance, road ride impressions, and more. So, what are your thoughts on the new Norton Manx R coming to India? And if you had to pick between the Norton Manx R, Ducati Panigale V4, Aprilia RSV4 or the BMW S 1000 RR, which one would it be?
