I've just had a chat with Louigi about the 851. It's an ex-BOTT bike from many years ago with a '95 900 engine in. I have no idea whether it was done for racing or whether the old engine was destroyed. The work done looks top quality and Louigi is undoubtably a man who knows a bit about dukes. I'm off to have a look on Sat afternoon if they finish the work on it (dead carbs), and will post some more pics saturday night. On the other hand I may go to the pub and post the pics sunday lunch..... Cheers, Ali ps: This 851/900 would be worth about 10p two years from now, wouldn't it? pps: That incredibly clean 900 is up for £2.2k until Friday 3pm (trading it in). |
