I recall that there were heaps of pictures somewhere, I think it was from this forum.

Can anyone point me into the right direction? I want the pictures for my personal collection. Thanks!

I've not spoken to John for a while but I think he's still got it.
I know he had an incident on a trackday at Cadwell (basically he got knocked off by another rider) which lead to a second (or third?) rebuild after those pics were taken.
I think John is still posting (as Yeti) over at the www.italiansportingclub.co.uk if you want to get in touch with him.

I rode the Beast at Cadwell on the DSC trackday last year and a fine piece of kit it is.

Hello

Thankyou for the comments,
It was created with quite a few low-res pictures of John's bike.
I appreciate your suggestion think it also looks a tad two dementional,
but as John was not keen on the look did not take it any further.
