Oh there it is, phew.

I should post some photos of the little café custom based on Mk5 LeMans, that was out for a run a few weeks ago.  I think you saw the Facebook pics, Jim? Is Baldini still around? He would like the engineering detail.

BFG! (That's the same thing I holler when I bust a knuckle wrenching on the Sport . . . :o

 

For sure post up some views of the Mk5 - here's a thread Denis started for just that: Other Bikes

 

Good to *hear* from you, yeah!

It's not my bike though. I can post in one of the other (special) places (for banter).
It's this (Facebook links) >

It wont last, despite your teasing.

 

I like what the builder did with the tips of the cut off rear section of the frame. Seat needs some body though, make ya want to stay on the bike not just endure it

Hi BFG,

 

Really nice bike. Any build details for it? Local to you?

Yes I'm still around, but I'm retired from m/c...at least temporarily...dismantled the Tonti for further modifications...& the Scura spat it's dummy. Everything with a motor in the shed is broke. I'm busy w work etcetcetc. I've taken up mountain biking.

Ever get your Tonti LM sorted?

Cheers, KB :sun:

Great, it's Baldi. No, LM still sitting, as is Scura. Things continue to break and be bad on the Griso, though it's great when going. Aprilia continues to be perfect!

Monkey man, yes, the builder agrees with that: the seat is torture. It's a first go at it. He made the seat base/hump/tank etc. Engineering details are nice. I wish I knew how to work a lathe and other such tools and had access to them. (More basically, I wish I had a big garage and could have room to work at the bikes over time.)

Keith, were you able to see the photos in the Facebook albums?
