The Norcroft-Enfield 1000cc V Twin
The Norcroft employs cylinder heads and blocks from the 500 Bullet as the original Albion four-speed gearbox. The crankcase is all new as are the instruments which now include a rev counter and an oil pressure gauge. Thankfully the ignition switch is now located up front.
