    nice pics boys, that Magni...wow! i'd forgotten how cool they are! ended up spending far to long on net drooling at them, still better than what crime/doctor/DIY/physic/drama shit was on the box. between Magni dreams and pondering how to fit rear sets to a drum rear 'T' who needs the tele! I'm off to have a shitty day...

    Dunstall, Read Titan, Ocelot Engineering, Monotrack Engineering, & Interpart Corp used to make rear-set components suited to drum brake rear units . Another way would be to use a gear lever unit with a linkage arm and make a actuation arm to suit

    cheers, I'll look them up. With position of brake lever mount (rear) on these i'm even thinking about mocking my own out of a universal set. Dime City Cycles have a few uni's and they look pretty simple-thinking might shorten/reposition brake lever and just mount a plate/peg...if it was a disc rear would have been a piece of bolt on piss-pity i like the drums!....all this thinking makes my brain hurt!

    All those brands were just complete mount units...mounting plate with everything attached; there's also Racecrafters International too. Plenty of peeps make there own set-ups...just got to have access to the right tools

That one's a nice departure from what he normally does-more of a factory look, that LM tank looks great. His machines are really what swayed me back into Guzzi's, that and Ben Part's Zagato (davida helmet ad)

    Hi all, first weekend with bike so i thought I'd post a couple of pics after a good clean, un-stick front brakes and a couple of plugs. Goes really well and should be a good base to get started on modding.

    Cheers, yeah pretty stoked with condition when it turned up. Am wanting up swept pipes, so couple of options; adding angled inserts/or bending current ends and using these mufflers (don't sound bad-pretty open) or may park these and add megaphones. Quite like black pipes so if i weld i might high temp black the whole lot as center sections isn't polished. using current mufflers might look a bit 'long'-will have to see when seat/tail unit arrives and is mounted.
