My bro has a Ducati in his collection, I think
its called Monster. Sorry for not being more
specific but know nothing about bikes.
He has 5 but no car I have 4 cars, including
my Jensen which like your bike is in bits.

I've always understood Jensens and Ducatis were always meant to be in bits.... 8)
I seldom take myself seriously....

Dont know about the bikes but my Jensen
was my late fathers love. It was being rebuilt
by him and a friend. One day it will be finished.
Its a J series 3 Interceptor SP. all 7.2 ltrs
of it, quite a machine in 1973. Now worth
many pounds.

Yes Mash all made to order. You can tell them by the louvred
bonnet. To genuinely get rid of excess heat.

Have you thought of trying a sob story with the TV prog, Car SOS?
Let them do the work for some comparatively cheap Telly...

Just a thought.

Still think they pay one way or another Robert.
I think its the yanks say "no such thing as a
free lunch".
We are also recreating the bike my bro won the
British ultimate street Bike Championships in
2002-2003.
