Description

Historic vehicle
New rebore and pistons
New Sasch Ignition
Carbs overhauled
All the above by Made in Italy Motorcycles from where I purchased the bikeThis bike was originally built by Brancato Engineering (BE) using a donor, for Peter de Freitas (Echo and the Bunnymen) to his own spec. The engine was a full house BE rebuild with modifications that they had developed.
De Freitas specified right hand gear change.
The bike was sold back to BE to raise needed funds and sold on.
De Freitas soon after died on a MHR, not this machine.
I have owned this over 3 years and have had the whole bike repainted by the guy who does Made in Italys work.
I added the tank/ seat unit, Marchal lights, Imola fairing, 2 into one exhaust, new clocks.
