Mondial Piega?

$3500? So how do the importers get away with it then - or is that because it's under 30 years old? Isn't there a one off/limited import loophole like they do with the grey import cars?

Having sa ...

Jeez that's cheap......
Add exchange rate, shipping and the $3500AUD "compliancing fee" once it gets here and it's not quite as awesome.... sigh.

This HB3 seems good value too.

I'm sure I've seen a manufacturer's label laid up in a Bimota panel - Might have been a SB8 seat unit - might have been "Linea Moto for Bimota" or similar? Don't recall clearly enough.

ciao gammaboy, yes it Kooso.

any feedback about him ?
Only what I have seen of his work online - looks good.

hello guys

i had a chat with the guy. he can make the full "front body " in carbon fiber.
