Whats on God's earth is that and does it have a slipper clutch?
I think it may also benifit from some carbon wheels.

Yes mate - Mr Biggles I presume? Thumbs Up

Its a bit of living history Im afraid. Has the same basic engine as the 1500 wing with different carbs and cams and electrics. Exhaust made from dairy grade stainless steel pipes for pumping milk, various brackets from Demag and Engal injection moulding machines, rear subframe from thick walled crash barrier, rear fuel tank from 5mm plate bed taken from conveyor system, Handle bars from 1" OD gas pipe, old Lucas spotlights with forklift relays. Various fixings for wiring harness from ABB robot spray lines and KUKA welding robots, Exhaust hanger from nylon vacuum transfer system, front earls swinging arm chopped and changed by me after the original was made wrong for someone else (after he paid a lot of money for it). Many various parts and pieces from other jobs Ive had during the last 10 years or so.

Sorry, but even if I still had a bike in bits in the garage, I still wouldn't fancy riding that.
