Norton Motorcycles today presents a new version of the previously owned V4 SS superbike, which will now be called Norton V4 SV. 
The new version has a slightly changed appearance, but does offer some performance compared to the earlier V4 SS. 

The 1200cc 72-degree V4 has also remained, but now no more 200 HP is specified, but 185 at 12,500 rpm. 
The maximum torque dropped from 130 to 125 Nm. Presumably, Norton wants to prevent problems that can arise in the event of overload. 

The polished aluminum frame, Brembo brakes, traction control, up & down quickshifter, keyless start, rear camera, Öhlins NIC30 & TTXGP suspension and the carbon fairing have remained.
The TFT color dashboard is still there, but it shrunk from 7 to 6 inches.

Norton gives 193 kilos as dry weight. There are two colorways: Manx Silver and lacquered black carbon without additional color. 
The latest version also includes carbon rims from BST.
