Latest news is that I've found and bought a good set of Mikuni smoothbores (not flatslides) and the bike now starts when I want it too.
cheers

Nice! Definitely a project you have got going there!
Here's another shot of mine, i'll post more when I have time to have a better look at it. Very happy, in many ways it is like new, with just over 4000k on the clock.
Edit: It's frame number 69..... you have to love that.

bikes aren't in the lounge room else the cats would definitely be on them)
Spook: Ooooo me and V both reckon that looks the goods mate!! Congrats!

Thanks, I'll put some more photos up in the near future.
Cam: when those photos were taken I had 2 cats - I now have 6, and 5 dogs... The Bim isn't in the lounge anymore, but my little Ducati 50 SL/1 (50cc, from 1966) is.

here is something! Found this blog on Japan Yahoo. It shows down the page a photo of one of the Bimota Tuatara's made by Bimota specially for the Japanese market. There is the debate about whether 60 or 56 Tuatara's were made. 4 of these went to japan. Basically a derivative of the intended design, made at the bimbo factory, and possibly the smallest production run of the YB6 Tuatara series, and possibly the rarest and most coveted Bimota. (at least by me!)
This is the sales brochure from the day, from the site below... 3,390,000 yen to buy... that is $43,000 Australian-US dollars back in 1989. Quite ridiculous.
