It has been great fun getting reacquainted with the Norton marque that contributed immensely to my discovering my passion for motor racing in general and specifically for the Sport of Motorcycle Racing.

I idolized racers such as Mike Hailwood, Peter Williams, Jackie Stewert, Phil Read, Dave Croxford, Paul...

At Italianiron/BritIron we are making a real concerted effort to thoroughly go through our inventory and to make available our vintage motorcycle bits that have been so long on the shelves or in boxes since my initial sea container arrived in 2010.

As such, we desire to continue to offer additional quality Aluminum and Fiberglass items to make available for the Vintage Racing community. Shown above is our TT 1 next to our TT 1000 that were built with our chrome-moly TT frames and our TT bodywork kits. These TT kits are faithful copies of Tony Rutter's famous world championship winning racers. Let us "Fuel Your Race Passions" with one of our Ducati TT and F1 racer kits that you can use to create your own vision of that...

We need to thank our readership again as the 14 July 20 blog post on our Updated Fuel Tank Offerings achieved another milestone of popularity with our website host platform and also a "big" Thank You for all of the new orders!!  My intention has been to provide videos and text regarding the performance of our TT 1000 and TT 1 racers now that they are both wired for the street in addition to the track. Those videos and texts will be forthcoming. However, due to the increase in Covid 19 here in the US and our intensive temperatures at this...
