The photo shows the Norton Domiracer motorcycle with registration number 001 — the first bike of the series, which belonged to Stuart Garner, who saved "Norton Motorcycles" from oblivion.

The brand "Norton Motorcycles" returned to England in 2008 after 15 years it was owned by Americans. Norton is one of the most iconic British motorcycle manufacturers, so many fans were delighted when Stuart bought the company. Unfortunately, the moment was badly chosen, as the global financial crisis. Take the company to the former level was not possible, although Norton now produce exciting motorcycles in small quantities and even participate on the TT.

Norton motorbike Domiracer, shown in the photo, is expensive because it has a sequence number of 1 and was previously owned by the owner of the company. In fact, this bike is the most unique of all the 50 units of Norton Domiracer, produced by the British factory.

On may 27, it will be sold at auction "Villa Erba" for 45 000 — 55 000 Euro.
