Yeah, not good looking at all. But, it was put together pretty clean. Worth $300K? Uhhh, nope.

And what's with the shifter and the brakes on the opposite side as just about every modern motorcycle in the world...

Here's the engine:

And here's an MV Agusta engine, circa 1977

So I'm betting it's an MV, or possibly used one as a base.

I wouldn't trade my 1098R for it ...maybe not even one of my S4Rss.     

George Barber might buy it and ad it to his collection of over 1000 bikes on display at his museum in Birmingham, Alabama.    Dolph
