No MOT needed in Holland but mirrors and indicators needed depending on age of bike.

The van contains a 865rs and a H2 supercharged thing. The owner also has a zxr. 👍. The Bimota is beautiful think it was the same model as Merkel? Raced?

Another beautiful sun kissed morning in the island. Took me longer to get from Leicestershire to the IoM than to fly from Heathrow to Johannesburg. 👍

The Bimota is a YB4, they raced in WSB with an FZ750 engine, Davide Tardozzi, Foggy's old team manager used to ride it amongst others.

Hi Tim, Yea, that's Dave's Gt750. Quite a short bloke, probably mid 50's and very friendly. He's put the other pipes back on. Great pics mate

Got a few vids from Agos of your Bimota Johnny. I did come up yesterday but you weren’t around I’ll pop by again tomorrow. I’ve tried posting the vids via Tapatalk but they won’t load. Dave two customers of yours own the two hybrids above spoke very highly of you 😁👍

So I’ve filled the tank twice and worked out my average mpg. It is 22mpg. Yikes. Tz barrels, 34mm carbs and an enthusiastic use of the throttle isn’t good for the bank balance it appears.
