Now that's more like it:smokin :smokin

But in saying that, WTF is that last pic all about:eek :eek :rollin

They must have had to hand out free tissues to onlookers to help them wipe the tears of laughter away when they looked at that thing:rollin

That F4 is nice but I'm not sure about the rear design of the bike or those colours. Red and silver or blue and silver would swing it for me and those front forks are to die for:hat :hat

Re: milan

Cracking photos - thanks Lawrence for posting them

If any of you guys find out where I can get my grubby mitts on:
Them sexy rear sets !! :eek
Wavy Discs !!! :eek :eek
and the Carbon yoke !!!!! :eek :eek :eek

Please please please please let me know

Just a thought, but do you think the photo of the Bimota from behind looks like the short circuit robot Johnny 5 ???

Its good to hear thinking bout another Nelli Lloyd - All the best and a speedy recovery fella.
(ps - did you get my email re the can hanger and preload adjusters??)

Pics

Glad you liked the pics guys.<img border=0 src="http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/happy.gif" />

I'd hate to disappoint you but I think the Tornado was dressed up for the show Lloyd. I saw a line of 1130's when I was at the factory last Month and they all had pretty standard stuff on them. Mind you, I'd still have one in a minute though!!!
Oh, and you are very welcome for the card, I'm just hoping that it won't be too long before you can think about getting back on a bike again!!!

Kurt,

The top yoke is certainly not Carbon Fibre, It's problably anodised aluminium as Lloyd says.

Dave,

You certainly know your rear sets, thay are indeed Robby Moto.

Questions, questions!

:hat

Hi again Laurence, sorry to ask so many questions but I would like to know:-

1. Are the wheels also different or standard on the show bike?
2. Is the dry clutch standard?
3. Is the green paint the same as the old Tre, because on one of your pictures it shows the same green as the standard Tre on the tail section but a lighter green on the fairing.
4. Are the carbon bits standard especially as there is carbon around the tank?

If not, I wonder what the cost of these options will be as I would like the wavey discs, rear sets, and carbon parts. (Although I have salvaged the carbon off of my Tre and hope they will fit the new one.)

Many thanks
Lloyd

PS Colin, Sharky I will give you a call soon.

Re: Questions, questions!

No problem with the questions Lloyd.....I can tell you must be feeling a bit better, as there seems to be some serious thinking going on.

I might be wrong here but I think the production bikes will be more like the pic that was on that card that I sent you. It's the same one that is in the show brochure:-

and here is the secification page also:-

....so it's standard wheels and a wet clutch I'm afraid but the good news is the green paint looks exactly the same that is on my standard TRE (just more shinier!!!)

I'm not sure what carbon bits you are referring to round the tank (I couldn't see any in my pics) but your existing stuff that was salvaged off your old bike shoud fit just fine.

Re: Questions, questions!

Hi Laurance,

Great Pix

Any idea what a pair of them Robby Moto rear sets cost?

While you are there can you find out about them wavy dics as well.

Happy to advise that I have put on a 1000Km's on my new RS engine and she is tickety boo.

Hi again Laurence, if you look at pictures 10 and 12 at the begining of your post you will see that under the silver tank it looks like carbon fibre. If not then it looks like it is painted and not the normal black plastic on the standard Tre.

By the way, I do feel better but have a few bad moments!:|
It can only get better thought (I hope!)

I'm am whittling my list of desirables down to the new 1130 or the MV Augusta Corse in red & white or the Bimota Tesi.
The Benelli looks great and I cannot wait to see it in the flesh,cost £10,000.00 plus a few extras! :b
The MV looks bloody beautiful, in red & white (search for MV Augusta Corse on the 3x website) cost £16100.00 no extras needed! :b :b
The Bimota is very different and runs a Ducati motor also looks great and costs £16,000.00 (base model).

I have excluded the LE I think due to possible parts back up problems.:| But then again!
