Motos Sport Lieutaud, Marseille

Does anyone have any information on this enterprise, which evidently thought of itself as a Norton specialist or agent? Attached to this post is a photo of the sticker attached to the rear mudguard under the tail unit of my recently acquired 1972 Fastback, with the name and address of the dealership together with a traditional Norton logo.

Google Streetview suggests that there is currently no motor-cycle business at 39 cours Lieutaud, although Google does reveal that elsewhere in the street one can find the local Hinkley Triumph agents, a large Honda emporium, and assorted smaller two-wheel dealers and fanglers (cours Lieutaud is quite a long main street near the centre of the city).

I'm asking as part of research into the bike's past, which appears to have been eventful although the precise history is obscure since the factory despatch records are silent.

What is known that it was re-imported to the UK in the 1990s, and there is documentary evidence of a subsequent period in Switzerland.

The sticker obviously suggests a French period in its career; the Motos Sport people are presumably responsible for the cut-down (and too short) stainless guard replacing the standard item. I have had to make up a bracket linking it to the equally non-standard rear number plate carrier which, unbraced, has led to cracking of the tail-light unit to which it is bolted.
