They've broken a complete bike. Funnily enough that engine was £3999 last week.

It's been on eBay for a few months, Gojuu flagged it last September. The price was last changed on 23rd December.

I've bought quite a bit from that bike, for the Swiss bike I'm restoring. The engine price dipped, then shot up again.

I'm thinking of going for it.
I've already got a widow maker frame and some Ali-express engine bolts.....what could go wrong?

And I now see why you asked me “what else you got?”

Maybe Cliffa should buy the wheels ?? These should have the newer cast hubs .

I’m surprised no one has bought that engine unit and stuck it in a featherbed.

Or even better, a hard tailed chopper (just to wind y’all up) !!

That's so damn beautiful.

One of the things that gets into the way for the eye is the side mounted oil cooler.
Switch out the cooler to a "chin" mounted position just below the front engine mount, and that opens a full view of the motor.

Thanks for thinking of me Tony. I'm sorted now though. I got some later wheels from a member who had upgraded to BST carbon.
