Thanks to everyone who responded. I am getting some good information from a few sources.

Now what to do with it. I am leaning toward simply cleaning it and doing what is needed to ride it. Thus, I would leave most of the patenia. Thoughts.


A very very very nice bike and that’s because I love the engine inside. EmbarassedI wish I had one. Wink

Just one question, I thought there is original a Marzocchi front suspension on it. I'm not sure, because I have no Bimota knowledge…. Shocked


Be careful with the carbs, if I remember correctly there are 28 mm Mikuni carbs installed on it. I know from experience that if these carbs have stood still for a long time they give many problems. Inspect the carb securely and replace any parts that are not reliable.
