PHOTOLA MOTO↗ View original

Norton teamed up with UK creative studio Peaceful Research to build a one-off 'Manx [P]R' based on the Manx R. It carries the 1,200cc, 72-degree V4 producing 206hp, wrapped in an asymmetric pink-and-purple graphic. The build took roughly 10 days and is a display piece, not a production model.

Pulling this off in 10 days is craftsman-level work in my book. Wrapping a 206hp V4 in an asymmetric graphic like that takes nerve, and it hits me the way I judge every build — who touches it and how. Calling it a display piece and leaving it at that is honest; you'd need to see that paint in person to get it.

First time hearing about Peaceful Research as a studio.

Nice that it carries the Manx R name forward.

Finishing a 206hp V4 build in 10 days is impressive.

Committing to display-only actually feels honest.

Pink and purple together is such a bold, great choice.

If it's not for sale, guess we just get to look at it.
