Hi Everyone....

Here is my first ride video taken on a private road... as you can see the seat has still yet to be covered, but the bike is pretty much complete, bar a little more tuning on the fuel injection..

That looks fantastic!

I always wanted a cafe racer, and thought the Aprilia Blue Marlin concept should have been put into production!

Top marks :biggrin

Fantastic, I'm so jealous of that, sounds amazing, bet that'll draw a hell of a crowd at its 1st bike meet

Re-positioned under the rear seat as I recall Mr Chow. Take a look at the picture thread and you should see the fans shrouds just about visible.

I do hope this marvellous bit of kit gets all of the publicity it deserves. A feature to come me thinks :thumbup
