I was planning on going but that plans now looking dodgy Crying or Very sad

After you've bought all the SB8 and DB3 bits Gaz, keep yours eyes open for a sb6/6r swinger, linkage and spindle Wink

As I am overseas til Jan can you also please locate either a Db1, KB1 or db7 for me... awaiting with baited breath. 10 to 1 on the next thread is from UK Bimota and on that note I wonder how the chaps there are doing? Laughing

Just back from the show and for all those that didn't make it.........
don't worry....you didn't miss much Laughing

GK must have bought all the bimota bit's because I coulden't find any Laughing

The Bimota stand was very impressive with 3 bims squeezed in a corner.
The food smelt OK but I wasn't there long enough to get hungry.
Haven't been for about 7 years and probably won't be going for another 7 Wink

I really enjoyed my day out although I didn't have enough time to visit everything - I got quite a few bits for my 1954 Bianchi Bernina project and succumbed to buying one of these to do as a winter project....

although nowhere near the condition of the one in the photo, it has all the hard-to-source bits and matching numbers.

Missed 2 Bims (Steve) as he wouldn't answer my text messages Crying or Very sad

Our meet at Rivington was more impressive than the "Enthusiasts" display at Stafford. Laughing

Maybe , as the mighty Glen is calling it a day on the enthus club , next year the forum could show him how its done.
Probably a stupid thing to say , as I can't even find the time to get 2 of mine running , or attend the show , but with enough notice may be able to get the DB4 and yb11 or sb6 there.

I'm sure if we could get the bikes from the Rivington meet + the odd V-Due (Nige?) it would be a stunning display - IF they gave us adequate stand space (which they won't) - probably shoved in a dark and dingy corner somewhere. The Uttoxeter show next year would be good for a starter......... Question

sounds a good idea Smile

. I'll get my circus training underway so I can ride 2 there at once Laughing

I'll be going to the classic jap one (in Feb??) as I need some parts for my RG. Looks like Vort28 has volunteered to organise the Bimota stand. top man !!!!

no problems there Nige - if you twist my arm (and pay for the petrol!) I'll ride the V-Due Wink

Hi

The thread on the Uttoxeter I have split off into a separate thread in a new events section.

http://www.bimotaforum.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=691

Hope this will be a bit more convenient.

All the best
