Guido's new Ducati MRE 107

WOW! What a BEASTIE !!

What engine is it?

It sort of looks like squarecase bevel but the rear head is the wrong way round for that and it has the Mille hydraulic clutch cover

It is a square case bevel with the rear head turned around and with a Mille hydraulic clutch cover...

The head can't be turned around or the bevel tower would be on the wrong side, but I know what you mean

Yet another Masterpiece from the Wizard Mike

Stunning Mike and quite some progress compared to when I last saw it only a couple of weeks ago

Gone to its new home in Switzerland now Nice to have variety like the Ducati and Guzzi

I suppose thats the end of your 80+ hour weeks for now? Back to a more leisurely working week I expect then, lying in bed untill 6:00am and only working untill you fall over. I suspect you are already planning your next masterpiece in your mind, that is if you have not already.

well done Mike!!

Sadly I fear that is very much the truth. The sidecar world are lucky to have you Mike

Mike, Could you build me a new chassis, I`ve got a sooper dooper fast BSA SLOPER of about 500cc? single cyclinder and hand change gearbox with around 3 gears in it. I want to race it in the F2 class I have got the engine soaking in a tank of T.V.O. to try to free all the parts like the piston, big end and main bearings etc. I will need you to machine a new carb for it as the original has corroded away along with a few other parts such as the crankcases and the cyclinder head. Could you machine the plug holes so that those really small racing plugs will fit, they look so cute, and I`m sure will add at least 20mph to the top speed. Oh! and by the way it must be finished by the end of June 2014, I`m sure you can do it, after all it ONLY a few bits of conduite pipe stuck together and 3 wheels pointing in the same direction. I would come to your place and show you how to do it, but I am of on holiday for a few weeks in the sun. See you when I get back. P.S. It must not cost more than £55:00.

Seems legit
