Posting pics can be tricky at first but is a breeze if you use a host site like photo bucket.

Will get photobucket set up tonight ,
Yeah it's new , the bike has been punted around for the past 12 months , I was talking to a guy from Abu dabi who was offered it back of last year ,
The bike is the SP carbon , so I'm lead to believe they only made 1 , and will never make another , another reason to join the site and get infor so I'm factually correct .
Also will be picking all of your brains with regards to specs etc as theyre not exactly production bikes .
Go onto Australian bimota page , sp , brochure and gallery , the press and gallery pics on the site are my actual bike ,
