Nice Speciale!, and yeah, awesome garage, is it weird that I’m most interested in knowing what the R7 is like, I’d love to have a go on an R7, that bike has fond memories for me, was around when I was first starting biking, Noriyuki Haga almost winning the championship on it and sticking it to the V Twins.

Not weird at all.
It is a work of art in the flesh and a very capable machine, I originally went to look at a desmosedici and the guy also had this R7 sat in his garage so after spending 4 hours at his house I ended up with both bikes ! Turns out the R7 comes standard with around 110 to 112 bhp then there are another 2 upgrades that can be done, one giving approx 135 bhp and the other takes it to 163bhp I think he said which he had on this particular bike. Not much kick until 7k rpm but then it just takes off like a scolded cat !
Have a go on one if you can but be warned, they are very addictive.....
Good luck.

Is it still road legal if you take it to 163 bhp or then only restricted to tracks? Do parts exist or is it like the RC30 where if it goes wrong it is difficult to fix?

Yes, still very much road legal and I haven’t heard that parts are difficult to come by.
