I dunno. I never thought a simple question like mine about AR screens would have transmogrified into it's current discussionary state. Anyway while we're on the subject of Norton rotaries didn't the race bikes prove to be quite successful? They also used the engine in some police bikes (called the "Interpol II" I seem to recollect) and in a very expensive road bike called the F1. They should have marketed the bike at a lower price so that they were competitive with the Japs, like Triumph have done so successfully. They might have survived. This might be oversimplifying their problems but it's a nice thought.
