Welcome, we are neighbors  |
Indeed... My Bimota was bought in Maniago. I'm quite regularly in Udine... Do you know Motoatelier from Fiumicello? |
Perhaps I know who sold your bike, his name is Marco?
Yes I know MotoAtelier, of Marino Delle Vedove

I bought the bike from a guy called Renzo.
Cheers!

WOW that is really a stunning machine, congratulations.
The DB5 seems to have been quite a popular machine for track bikes and upgrades |

| I can see the rear swinging arm is from a Ducati S2R/S4R...single sider, which looks nice enough, although it is so chunky for bracing that it weighs the same as a normal double sider...so merely for aesthetics or quick wheel changes I suppose...You can get Db5 Race track bodywork, but that bike hasnt got that type on it, basically it looks the same as normal Db5 bodywork but more enclosed |

No, no… you get it wrong… this is bike of our acquaintance (spiderman), Marino Delle Vedove. He runs:

The tail is db5 that has been shortened by cutting off the last 5 inches or so. The front fairing is almost definitely not db5 though... Is it a rsv4 with mods? Going to have to hunt thru images!

Here is the db5 race body and the difference is huge. Look at the line of the belly pan and nose...

Are you sure there aren't 4 valves?
For supertwins italian championship you can use a Ducati engine with 4 valves, but 2 valves must be with desmo and the 2 other with springs.
