Hey Mike, just in case you aren't familiar with the Forum for searching, this post on PArts for Sale has just come up
http://www.bimotaforum.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=1363

Rapid time to scower and search all over your bike to see whats missing and what needs replacing and see if these guys have it in their treasure trove of DB1 NOS....Happy Hunting....Maybe this DB1 resto just got very expensive very quickly, perhaps Monty will have to go out to work for a living to bring some more pennies in....Hhmm Industrial accident at work methinks Laughing

Hello again folks,

wow! thanks for all the info. I think I'll be needing it although the parts seem a bit expensive (nil desperandum-I can always fit an FS1-E engine). Monty is fine at the moment behind the barbed wire and machine gun posts, although she's now reclaiming the Malvinas.

Cheers, Mike J.

Laws of Supply and demand I'm afraid, if someones got it and theres only one and 5 people want it. Lets face it they must be nearly 27 years old, and thus divide by 3 and you get the price they were then, which is probably quite cheap

Hello 2bims,

thanks for posting the listing - I suppose we don't buy Bimotas 'cause they're cheap!

Cheers, Mike J.

P.S. if this message appears a few times, the internet connection is playing up.

The jap translation goes something along the lines of bikes great but hasn't seen the cat for a month? Strange that...
