GV1390's Trattoria "Racer"

This should get an update, eh? Life has been pretty hectic as of late, so this doesn’t get the attention it deserves but anyway…

Had some fun track time on the MV:

Will need to make a different headlight mount due to the relief cuts in my new lower triple:

Spent a TON of time on wiring this thing from scratch:

Made a quick and easy ignition relocation bracket just to get the wiring done. Will end up making it look nice and paint it as well:

Got to hang out with Kemp again when I picked up my exhaust. Awesome guy.

Had @BREETIME work his magic with some welding on my Hindle system as it needed a little massaging to clear my larger swing-arm and also as I needed a different mount welded on…

Hurry up WOP, we’re TO bound in August!

Need to upload to YouTube when I get a moment unless you wanna, haha.

Was waiting to meet back up with you last night, so instead I drank an extra for you.

You coming for sure to TO? Talked to my buddy up there, he said; There is a BBQ Friday and then Saturday is the cruise to the show. Going to grab a hotel room or two as there is a few of us going.

I have to check my schedule but most likely I can make it. I can duck out of work Saturday and be on the road around 1pm and we can be in TO at 3pm. Or if I can take the whole day, I’ll do that.

Bike sounds GREAT when it settled into that nice low idle:tup:

whoa, solid update :tup:

Check and let us know…we are going either way. I’ll hopefully be on this if not, I’ll take the MV. I think we are going Friday evening, staying the night then come back Saturday afternoon.

Thanks! Hopefully give it a test ride tonight. :slight_smile:

No way lol. Wouldn’t make it anyway.

but maybe I should bring the Ural so we can run it down the track with you in the sidecar? :lol:

So what exactly is/was wrong with the MV? Do tell…

Oh, and hurry up and finish this fucking thing.

Only if it’s on 2 wheels you beautiful thing you

I suspect dago overload.

Olive oil cocked and ready.

Work. In. Progress.

Still a ton to do, it’s the little things that take the longest. -_-

Now i think you should go w/Black front fork tubes.

Ugh, it’s crossed my mind recently as someone asked me to swap them as they want gold. I do like how it stands out however, black would look good as well…so I think at least. Just don’t want to over power with black, I hate black.

Whoa! I like It.

what happened to that fany exhaust you had for it originally? you said it was a rare find and they only make like 8 of them a year
