I have heard Maxton have done a DB6 for someone in the UK so have base settings. If you wanted to use them they are reasonably local to me so could get delivered to me and I would forward them on to you in US. |

...and what the DB6 replaced...sniff sniff
1993 750SS-CR:
I really miss that bike. It was sooo light and sooo quick. It was around 389lbs wet and the HP out of that little 750 was astonishing. |

BTW, you guys here that are restoring some of these Bimotas do an outstanding job!!! There aren't many of us (Ducatisti and Bimotasti) that would attempt such work...and most of you guys have fairly cramped garages (sheds?) to work within.
My garage is only a 3-car (with one car in it, two motorcycles, a bunch of tools and equipment...and a whole lot of the kids junk. My BIL has a 30'x60' metal building to "play" in. |
