Should be alright in the UK, would need to tow a tanker trailer in Aus. The tail tank holds bang on 2 UK gallons, so I'd have a range of 40-60 miles, I may see if I can squeeze a gallon tank in somewhere else. It's a 2.7 from a Citroen SM and as used in the Maserati Merak. I was lucky to have...

I had a 2.5 Alfa on a kicker, although it was heavy to kick it was better than my old 350 Ducati that would lock, I'm hoping the Maserati will be easier because the compression is lower than the Alfa. Thanks guys for the kind words, I know it's not a true cafe racer and will probably weigh...

Retro twin shock Imola Replica running 749 engine with reversed rear head and carbs

Started cutting and chopping the frame of the one month build

I hope to have it on the road in April and get it out and about to a few shows Cheers

We can all make mistakes, I made one many many years ago when I wasn't nearly as smart as I am now, I thought I'd got something wrong but it turned out I was mistaken. ;D

Nope, I thought deleting my facebook would help :D I hope to get her done in April

Hey Steve, I'm doing alright mate, I hope you're doing well. I thought I give this site a try.
