Gives an abbridged "Guide" and easy reference to Bimota Models and their differences, Warranty issues, and how to set up your specific model, complete with Customer requests emailed to the factory for spares, INVALUBLE!!!! Laughing Laughing

POSTAGE is quite steep though, let me know if anyone is interested in a bulk order from Italy

Yes the first half of the book describes what items can be secured in the glove box of the Mantra, the second half shows the wood veneer trims available, and the remainder gives stockists of suitably sized vessels for projectile vomit (apologies GeeKay Laughing )

Nobodies ever tried to write that book, starting it would be easy, finishing it would be a lifetime event, but then wheres the market for selling it, you would have to publish it in Braille as thats the only available punter for the bike?? Laughing

but then a blind person would feel the shape of the mantra and wonder if it was a bike in the first place and not an ex wooden horse from the merrygo round?

We have to be careful here, geeKay is a verdant follower of the Forum and those roughtie tufftie Yorkshiremen have their weak sides, he may be crying in his pint of yorkshire ale and souring his drink Laughing
He may also reveal that I once sat on a Mantra to try them out for size, but it is a viscious rumour and theres no photographic evidence at all, I testify M'lud, it never happened.....Innocent 'til proven guilty

On a different Tack, are you trying to be the first Forum member to have his list of bikes run on to 2 lines in your signature, try bigger font and full titles with spaces, bet you can get there.

Once recall my first car, had the longest title ever, a Vauxhall Cavalier GLS 2000 Coupe SportsHatch. Wolfrace wheels, electric aerial (occasionally), 6 dial dashboard and blue velour upholstery.....Wrapped it round a tree when it swapped ends with itself, nostalgically looking back, a saving grace and fitting end... Laughing Embarassed
