Norma has just released the new Polar Shadow 325S, which is priced at 17,980 yuan. This car not only has excellent performance in power and configuration, but also the most cost-effective model in its class. Recently, the 2024 China Endurance Race (Chengdu Station) in which it participates won the double championship of the domestic 250cc and 300cc categories.
In this Chengdu competition, the domestic group is very familiar with some models, such as Kaiyue 321RR, Saikelong RC401, RC3 and other models. In terms of results, the team won the 250cc class with a top lap of 1'46"904 and a 300cc class with a top lap of 1'46"206.
Actual combat to verify the strength
Perhaps many car enthusiasts pay more attention to the configuration and price of a car when they pay attention to the model, but few car enthusiasts pay attention to the real comprehensive performance of a car. In fact, there are not many domestic car manufacturers participating in the event, but as a listed model, it can be verified and achieved results in the race, which will really bring better proof of the strength of the model itself.
Of course, it is not easy to achieve results, which also requires a strong support team and the cost of the event. Even if the same Polaris 325S is in the hands of different riders, it needs to go through a series of run-ins and tests, after all, everyone's riding habits and styles are different. Therefore, repeated testing, modification and optimization are the most basic to tune a model, and it can be said that from the body structure to the power system, from the suspension system to the brake system, in-depth technical verification and design confirmation have been carried out.
At this time, in addition to a strong support team, a model with solid workmanship and outstanding power is also needed, and the Polar Shadow 325S is also a high-end entry-level model from the start. The racing car itself is actually the manufacturer's continuous testing and improvement of a model, and it is also the best process for updating and verifying the technology to make the model more comprehensive through the event. Of course, this event will be a real demonstration of the reliability of the engine performance, brakes, braking, steering, shock absorption and electrical components of the models on sale.
Polar Shadow 325S model review
The 2024 Polar Shadow 325S is very original in appearance and designed by an Italian design team. At the same time, the Polar Shadow 325S is exactly the same as the racing cars in terms of frame structure, and the whole vehicle adopts a braided steel tube frame and an aluminum alloy swingarm structure. The front and rear pedals, upper and lower Samsung platforms, and caliper brackets are all made of aluminum alloy, and the maintenance quality control is 151KG under the premise of maintaining excellent rigidity.
The Polar Shadow 352S is equipped with a self-developed asynchronous twin-cylinder liquid-cooled eight-valve engine, with an actual displacement of 325cc, a maximum power of 28.7kW/10500rpm, a maximum torque of 27.5N·m/9500rpm, and a maximum horsepower of 39 horsepower. This engine is also the same engine used in the 300cc class of the China Endurance Championship, and the same engine used in the 250cc class is the same engine used in the Polar Shadow 250.
In terms of shock absorption, the Polar Shadow 325S is equipped with Yu'an high-performance inverted front shock absorber and mid-mounted rear shock absorber, and the rear shock absorber supports the function of adjustable preload damping. In terms of braking, the front brake adopts Hangte four-piston calipers with 340mm floating single disc, and the rear brake is Hangte two-piston calipers with 240mm fixed single disc. Of course, the dual-channel ABS system and the TCS traction control system are also standard.
Wrap up at the end
It can be seen that the Polar Shadow 325S is indeed a very balanced middleweight imitation racing model, whether it is performance, configuration, cost-effectiveness, and excellent performance in the same class. The fire at the Norma factory has silenced it for a year, and the reborn Norma locomotive seems to have gained more momentum, and presumably the inline four-cylinder replica will soon be available to everyone.
In recent years, major domestic motorcycle events have also attracted more and more attention, and it is hoped that more manufacturers and drivers who love racing can participate in the event, and I believe that in the near future, Chinese motorcycle racers will also appear on the stage of international events.
