Welcome to the forum biggs, and fair play to you wanting to build a Bimota replica 
HB1's (as most early Bimota's) were only kit bikes anyway

Yes it is a Kit i have done lots of research on this but every one i see if a bit different hehe Some tanks have different gas cap some have a speedo and a tack, some have just a tack, some have Spoke wheels, some have cast wheels some are gold some are silver, some have red seats some have black seats,
I guess it being a kit their will be some variation people would have built them the way they want right ?
Thanks

Absolutely right, so pick the best bits from all your pictures and build it the way YOU want it and don't forget it's a replica so you not restoreing a true Bimota anyway. Just keep it as true to the spirit as you want it
Good luck and we expect to see copious amounts of pictures

encouraging my arse.....we just like pictures
two things I feel I should point out......ct200 is not a bimota (is it even a real motor bike) and this is a Bimota forum
C'mon, get it started now, and take plenty of pictures
