Very nice! It says Keihin carb conversion? Wonder if that means FCR's? If so, I wonder if it had the correct tank to clear the throttle linkage? Looks to have an Ohlins rear, nice addition. Original mufflers. Folding footpegs, did the US market DB4's come with folding pegs?

Wasn't there some kind of "race" option that came with a different tank and the FCRs?

Unsure how to tell about the tank.

Mine has folding pegs and Ohlins rear shock(standard) as well as the corse kit. The corse kit was Kiehn carbs, modified tank, and Ti corse pipe. I think the tank mod shortened it to clear the cone filters fitted to the carbs. The db4c had the corse kit and a 944cc kit installed.

The special Corse version that came from Bimota had Ohlins rear, Corse muffler, FCR39's and a special fuel tank... the bottom of the tank was slightly different to the standard DB4 tank to give clearance for the side pull throttle linkage of the FCR's.
