I thought I'd see what people think to this. I've previously spoken to Keith/Admin about it.

I have a spreadsheet I've started with equivalent parts for various Bimota models. ie the side indicators on a YB4 are from a US spec VW Golf.

I wondered if it would be useful to try and fill in this spreadsheet with info from other members.

Some items are used on various models ie Brake carriers for the YB and DB for example. YB6 fuel tap is the same as an RD250's

Well, I understand that the front turn signals on a DB5 are the same as a modern benelli, only reversed, now if I could only find a Benelli front turn signal!

I think that would be a great help to many.

Great idea. I can help with a few pieces of information as well

I think the topic should say bike tear and model, then separate within the post what's what - turn signals front or rear, tai light, footoegs, levers, clip-ons, sprocket front or rear, wheel front or rear, etc. If any mods are required then state so. If anyone have pictures of the mod attach them and so on

By the way I suggested the same 2 years ago when I just got my SantaMonica.

I think the best would be pinned at the top thread in each sub-group named something like "Cross fitment parts for SB8R/RS/SB8K SantaMonica and Gobert"

Obviously same for YB, DB and Even Tesi and V-Due models.

The only restriction/request for members posting in those threads should be no chit chats. Just the facts, no guessing game

I am ready to start posting know info as soon as Admin will give a go a head
