    Here’s a bloke who mated two 6 cylinder engines together to make a V12 (Kawasaki not Honda).

    I met him at one of our suppliers (Pretech) a couple of years ago

    he also has a Viper engine V10 road legal bike.

    Saw this on TV and featured in a couple of mags. Impressive piece of work, made to a very standard

    Both beauties.

    The CBX sellers have this retro styled Norton in their showroom too:

    I quite fancy the idea of buying one of those Nortons to replace the Ducati when the time comes

    I love the idea of the Norton, but it is a lot of dosh, and that one I think was a Ltd Edition so wont be more of them specifically. I am a big fan of this:

    ….. Just wish Moto Guzzi would build it, if they did it with the right suspension/brakes/wheels it could be a flippin awesome bike!

    That Guzzi concept looks very do-able, and in the current market, I think it would do well.

    You are right about the new Norton too, they hold their value really well and are some way out of my league at the moment

    think this Guzzi is a one off custom jobby, but Mo-Gu are missing a big trick here…. 110+ bhp and decent handling would make this bike awesome!

    That would be a bike that I would be very interested in

    better in my eyes than the R-Nine-T from BMW if it’s price is good…. not enough Guzzis on the road :-)

    That’s true.
