Looks very cool Pascal!

I couldn't ride it.
I am a cruiser man myself.
Floor boards, back rest, cruise control.........

Alright, It's only because I'm OLD! :

Have fun and ride safe.

Hi Pascal,

They are a lovely bike with a very sweet motor that likes to rev.

Enjoy your new toy.

Nice duke, is it a rider or does it need some work? Noticed it is missing the chain is all. Me a big fan of bikes.
Current bikes;
1989 GSXR1100 Suzuki Slingshot Streetfighter
1987 GSX400 Suzuki for her indoors to use
1975 Yamaha XS650 in lots of bits soon to become a Kenny Roberts Street Tracker
1969 Tas Keystone Minibike with 80cc motorised pushbike motor
1923 JAP 350cc engine which needs a bike built around it.

it is missing chain in the pic. will get to that. this is bought to re-sell though, i already have two bikes. a harley fatboy and a ducati 916 SPS.
this one was to cheap not to buy. got the engine runnning. one of the ignition pick-ups was busted, but i knew that but previous owner didn't. its a cheap fix. the two in one pipe makes the most beautifull noise, realy lets the engine scream. now its matter of adjusting the valve timing some new tires, chain and few small bits and bobs and she will be out of here again.

shadboy, shame we live so far apart, i would have a perfect frame for the JAP engine. is a 1927 royal endfield frame i have around here for years as decoration in the workshop.

Been about 20 years since I last rode a motorbike and that was a Ducati desmo 500.

The racing position used to get me all cramped up - it would cripple me now.

It performed like a damned racing two stroke - I used to think Ducati riders were all mad - but I found that's the only way to ride the damn thing.

Enjoy.

Hope you enjoy it, just don't drive it around my house. I prefer birdsong to motorcycle noise.
