I'll build this one day. It remains the most amazing/interesting/pointless bike ever made.

Then I'll call Mark Forsyth and he'll ride it in the rain instead of hiding in the Little Chef biggrin
Steve Burns bike.

I watched that at Bardon hill climb donkys years ago.

Wow, a Laverda Jota if I'm not mistaken, it just screams Italian thoroughbred above all others, and if I could have afforded one I would have bought one, this was and is a true legend for all the right reasons. Is the two wheeled equivalent of the Lamborghini Countach.

SFC 750, I lusted after one of these many years ago, now sadly they are just too expensive, beautiful though.

Seeing that the thread has been resurrected & I missed this before.

BN, you would have watched me at Barbon too, it was there at one of the years I competed, MF was on a 888/851 another time.

Oh yeah. SP4 is my favourite but any 89 onwards 851 or 888 would fit nicely in my garage. They're pretty rare - i might have to cobble some imitation thing up with a Monster chassis and a ST4 donk one of these years
