    Then i could start getting the bike together.

    A few more beers & a bit more convincing that a Motogadget dash would look good too.

    Been waiting a while for some pics of this one, loved the colour of the frame and bits when first posted, engine colour matches nicely. Like those front rotors too, are they your work Ben?

    Actually it's a Megatec " Mangusta"
    it's based on the MV one but it's shorter & is more agressive looking.
