Just found a photo of my dads tesi... Sadly he sold it and now very much regrets it..... The paint was Steve at keneyic art. It had billet arms front and rear .(with carbon protectors) it had the end cans gutted of all road noise suppression)
If anyone knows the whereabouts of this we would be interested to know .
The chassis number was 00030 from memory ,

Ooh - thats lovely!
Thats a very early frame number to have the later swoopy ES bodywork and billet front and rear swingarms fitted. Have you checked the registration on DVLA's web site? May still be in the country!
Look 2Bims - another tricolori for your collection  _________________ Bimota SB6 and Benelli TNT 899S road bikes.

Well I do ask myself from time to time "if I'm feeling lucky...."
And another Tricolor with a Doocati engine would sure "make my Day"
Would just need a Muntra then for the full set of "The Good, the Bad and the .......Ugly"
From this distance, the cans on that Tesi would blow your head clean off.....  |
