Judging by the open clutch casing and the rear brake resevoir(or lack of) it is a Ducati race bike, but which one, I do not know :(

Ooops, wrong, I just spotted the 916 stylee frame hangars on the first pic.

Alright then, it's a 748/916 frame with a aircooled 900cc 2 valver in it?
Jools

Then again, the frame looks a little hand welded....one of those ARC Fabrications titanium frames?

They have those weird front ends so this pic would rule out a Hossack

And No Gordon its neither of those

Lets put it this way, that engine would be to small and the frame to big

Some how I don't think they'll be able to sneak it into the Supermonos so they are hoping to race it at Assen in the Ducati Club races where there are classes for the Air-cooled twins
So will probably be in against the NCRs and the Pierobons

The garage is actually the workshop at the back of the bike shop.
I I didn't have use of a proper Mill and a couple of big lathes at work I would probably have one of those little Lathes come mill in the workshop.

The self supporting Carbon Seat is a work of art
