    There aren't many 18-year-olds that look much better than this...

    Yes it was in the pits on a trailer I think it belonged to the guy racing the Benelli Sei

    Ohhh, a very nice example of a Bimota the final Duke DB4 was the nicest the Duke powered Mantra was......... well undecrible.
    Attached is a couple of photos of a mates BB1, what a wicked wee bike to ride (fuel tank in the belly pan) My favorite would have to be the SB8R, jap motor in a Iti rolling frame, IMO it dosent get much better than that.

    Doesn't really do it for me with the bent banana look of the panels.

    The others don't look so bad, but I always can't help but think of Looney Tunes or Toon Town when I see the Mantra.
