I saw this on the Norton site today, 13/9/2006Peter Morris We are pleased to announce the return of a Norton engineer to our Team. Peter has a wide knowledge of Norton rotaries, being an important member of the design / development team that took the Commander and F1 projects through from concept to production. You may recognise him from the smiling group on page 168 of Kris Perkins' book of Norton Rotaries. He is an experienced motorcyclist, racer during the '70s on his own Greeves Silverstone and Velocettes, and an everyday, all-weather rider on his CB250RS. Peter aspires to owning an F1 but doesn't think his wife is ready to accept yet another bike in the garage.

I remember Pete Morris from his days of running the service department, a very helpful and knowledgeable chap.On the subject of former Shenstone employees, While at the Beezumph, Fred Swift was having a look at my bike and he is also a well of knowledge. Good to see him looking well in retirement.Malc
