C G Chell motorcycles in Stafford bought most of the NVT stock and the eazyrider name, Cyril is selling up now as he's retiring and everything must go so if you want NVT bits get in touch with them now as it'll all be finished soon.
I'm loving this series. (I worked on the Norton Rotary project -- early days, 1976 - 78 -- and we shared factory space with the "Easy Rider" production line at Shenstone. We'd often take an Easy Rider down to the shops or post office, they were fun little mopeds.)
I once owned a '85 Mazda RX7 as it was on my list to have a rotary engined vehicle and I wasn't disappointed. The Norton rotary must've been an interesting project to work on.👍
@@Themoporium After about 8 years of Commando ownership (and racing), the rotary took a bit of getting used to but it was an *amazing* motorcycle to ride. This was in the early days when idle and power delivery characteristics weren't perfectly developed but it was as smooth, fast, and strong as my '84 13B RX-7. I think we're on the same page!!! 👍 😄 Those of us on "the motorcycle side" had a good regard for the Easy Rider. It was similar to other mopeds of its time but the suspension, ride characteristic, stability etc. were really quite good.
