Very nicely done, that’s a credit to you I own an earlier carbed 900 and these later ones started out as MARMITE bikes, the styling was either loved or hated, but when ridden they are absolutely amazing and better than a standard carbed one I think they are going to be a great choice as an investment bike to use and ride, just look how the 999 turned out
Thanks Ser and Bump. I agree with you they are, like the 749/999 ahead of their time and they are/will appreciate with time. Just add a few more photos taken yesterday of some details.
It's cracking good value Andreatalo, but it's just not one that I would be looking for sorry. You've done beautiful work.
Thanks Ser. Unfortunately my garage is full and I need to sell some to make space to new projects. I have for sale a 749 and 1098 too if anyone is interested.
Happy new year everybody. The 749 has been sold, so now I have some little space in the garage. The Supersport and 1098 are next. Next project probably the older shape SS, we'll see what comes up.
