I won it!!

I'm a little scared right now..so take it easy on me, but I've always wanted one since I was 16 (28 now) and when the chance came up I had to bid.

To be fair it ain't so bad... Shocked Wink

Needs discs as the bobbins are fooked, carbs off and clean up, service, spend the next 3 years looking for a tail section as the first owner (cock-end) has used what looks like plasterboard fixings to hold down a tail pack!
And that exhaust looks more gash than it does on the photos!

It's a keeper...but at the minute I'm thinking about a nut and bolt strip down.
Lucky for me I know of a couple of guys I used too ride with are bimota experts.

I for the life of me can't understand how anyone can treat a £20k bike with such little respect.

And I actually asked about that shitty hammer!

Congratulations! As Oily says it will give you hours/days/weeks/years/lifetimes* of fun, lol!

(* delete as appropriate)

It may be possible to repair the tailpiece - at least, that's what I'd intended doing based on a careful assessment (ie. quick look...) at the pics.

Composites will repair very well, even structural ones if they're done right; for example a good composites shop can repair race-car chassis without compromising either strength or safety.
