Been a while since the article was produced...when 3 Forum members allowed the journo and photographer into their homes...so I thought I'd throw up the article for anyone interested....From December 2015..











If difficulty in reading article...then expand your screen size....just about readable.....

I agree. Great stories.

CNC, I take it by your user name that you made the Bimota logo engraved alternator insert yourself. If so, do you have any more to sell?

Regards.

I'm sure cnc will answer, but yup, he had them made but the bloke isn't doing them anymore.....kindly though I got two from him before production ceased....if it's any consolation....they actually weigh slightly more than the originals...

That is right, I made a few of them for my Bimotas and send some to Steve Smile. I made cad file, but was milled with help of my friend, who stopped working now. I'll ask around if somebody care to make new ones... I can send you the file though if you have a possibility to make them.

They are nice jewels tor any bimota, and match the Bimota b logo on the carbon vented clutch covers that bimota fit to the dry clutch models....and have the circular groove on the back to take the sealing rubber o ring....
