I had the wheels finished in this daft metallic ochre but it is fairly close to original. _________________ It's only the hairs on a gooseberry that stop it from being a grape. |

The little frame is a much modified (butchered?) Berneg housing a much modified (butchered?)Rumi engine.
Shhh this is a bimota forum. |

The season of projects is almost upon us, another couple of weeks and I'll be ripping into this winters project. What project will you be on Pompey? |

Going to work on the DB2. Not sure to go back to standard as much as possible or go down the special route and old school or cafe racer or .... only had a chance to ride it once back from storage and it kept dying on me. Think fuel starvation from carbs but who knows til I get it stripped. Still, all thats needed is love and cash, like everything else. _________________ Pomps

a Few DB2's around but I don't recall seeing a nice DB2 cafe racer special
IIR yours is quite modified already so it would be a shame (and expensive) to go backwards to standard |
