The seat/tank unit looks similar to a KB3, but is not the same.
The top of the seat on a KB3 slopes down towards the taillight much more. This bikes seat is more square.
Did the KB3 have differ ... |

Looks like you have a nice collection in your cellar.
Yes, I see what you mean. From the limited photos, it does look like a Bimota KB. If it's a KB1, the bodywork has been replaced with a one piec ... |

Now that is a project bike worthy of restoration. Nice score Gavin. Good luck with the resto and hope you find some nice special parts under that bodywork. |
