As its a day for guessing the bike here's one

chris.p 19-Feb-2009 22:38

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 :(

Nahh...that's not a supersport frame, it's a monster

Jools 20-Feb-2009 11:55

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 20-Feb-2009 11:58

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

Mello-Yellow 20-Feb-2009 11:59

I thought the tank shape looked a bit 748/9**

gordonparker 20-Feb-2009 12:02

Could it be a "in house" project ?????

Mello-Yellow 20-Feb-2009 12:04

Thinking, 748/9** frame modded for 600 a/c engine for dd.

007 20-Feb-2009 12:51

I know, its a Ducati! :lol:

Senna3 20-Feb-2009 12:58

no cigar for you today 007:lol:

gordonparker 20-Feb-2009 13:52

A product from Rimini ? Bimota ?

Mello-Yellow 20-Feb-2009 15:13

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
