Update | the motorcycle on its way to Star Twin

Here a short update about the development of my café race to be. Like mentioned before two boxes with Rizoma parts arrived last week and some of these have been mounted on the motorcycle already; like the dry open clutch, this became a real eye-catcher on the engine! Later on the aluminum milled time belt covers and oil plug will be the icing on the cake for the engine.
At the moment the motorcycle is in the workshop of Star Twin. They will install the wiring, Dellorto carburetors, oil cooler and exhaust system. Hopefully it will be back in three weeks, so I can continue with the preparations for the clay modeling. Hope to start with the body shaping in July..

























The motorcycle in the van, in its way to Star Twin. The short rear end of the motorcycle is clearly visible and the part of the frame pointing out will be trimmed; so the bike will be shorter and lighter!



Already shared in a Tweet last Saturday, but what an impressive dry clutch!
