I've never seen a Mantra...



With this little fly optional fly screen before, makes it look like a totally different bike!

And, AFAIK, the only production bike with a wooden dashboard.

You're right, so much better!

KTM Freeride-E, converted to Supermoto....

Added to my watch list, I'm going to have to have a serious think about buying that

Loads, is there a chapter of the Bimota Mantra owners club in Barnsley?

You've been to Thurgoland?

[KungFooBob]

You've been to Thurgoland?

I pass through it to get to my sisters house in Penistown.

[cheb]

Are these places anywhere near Blubberhouses?

[weeksy]

Just in case 1 steering damper isn't enough

My sister used to live in Armitage Bridge before she moved to the Darkside (Wigan)

WT-A-F ??

Anyone notice that none of them are connected to the frame, so they're not actually doing anything!

Never mind that. What's the 2nd throttle on the LH side for?!

[cheb]

Makes for easier wheelying, the bar rotates in your hand.

A different take on Mods and the extra lights and mirrors fitted to scooters maybe.

There's also something on the rh fork leg.

[Mr. Dazzle]

Probably just as well they're not connected, might be a bit slow steering otherwise

I did my radiograpic testing qualification's* at a place called Penistone, near Sheffield.
The place I trained and tested at was just past the railway bridge.
Same place?


*Long time ago, when I was a weld inspector and before I took up wood butchery.
The training was interesting but the crawling about in pressurised steam boilers inspecting 25% of furnace end seams less so.

[KungFooBob]

Yup Penistone = Penistown.

..and it's much nearer Barnsley than Sheffield.
