My good friend Allan Östli Jorgensen from Denmark, rides such a bike. The standing cylinder has been replaced with a counter weight, just like on the original Ducati Supermono. A real work of art!

I think their bike weighs in on close to 135-140kg, which is a little to heavy in my book. But it is very tidy and high quality work! One guy in charge of machining/fabricating engine parts, one guy for mechanics, one guy for electronics, one guy for suspension and so on... Just like my "team", it's just that it's one and the same guy!bushmechanic said:that is awesome.. . .... wasn't it a little bit heavy ?
or a bigger crank drive gear would move the transmission shaft away from the crank and give us more room.. new cases.. heat up the Parkinson forge!
Then we are very much alike! I haven't either any knowledge of frame building (up to now) and I also love looking at my work!ElSnorro said:I have zero knowledge of frame building, but just love looking at your work 8) 8)
