that's the same pic i have, i am pretty sure that is Doug's work.  bear in mind Doug was working out of BCM's shop for a long time.
That is not Dougs' work.

IIRC, Doug had those pictures on his Arc Fabrication website and he said on that page that someone else had created the swingarm.  Doug just admired it so he put it up there.  He also stated it was the same weight as a stock swingarm.

Would that trellis sport bike with a 1200cc motor be based on the 2V air cooled Monster or would it be based on the 1198 engine?

I'm 99.999% sure Norm will confirm that it would be a 2V motor.

But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

If you want an NCR frame, let me know. Currently availible for the Sport Classic, 1098/1198, and i thnk the Hyper frame is done. Frame alone is 14k for the Hyper, so you get the idea, lead time is about 3 weeks.

Also Ti rods, billet stroker cranks, pistons, etc etc. I use a lot of the Poggi parts, and all I can say is... DAMN

Yes, it's a motor that I've been working on for a couple of years, based largely on the Ducati 2V air cooled design. In order for me to consider it a success, it'll have to produce in excess of 100 ft/# of torque. I will probably build 3 so I can test one to failure and still have a spare.

How much clearance between the rods and the cam drive shaft?

Plenty. Either the Pankl or the Poggipollini rods have small "big" ends, so really no issue. Ive never tried the steel ones.

We have run a slightly longer stroke, but had to turn down the jackshaft.

The NCR crank is almost too nice to put in the engine! Not a cheap group of parts, but at least you wont hurt it in a 2v motor!

In the October issue of Motorcycle Consumer News, there is a photo of a bike built by Radical Ducati Uno of Spain that has an Aluminum Chassis and Sub Frame with a 999 Supersport engine , Ohlins, Brembo Radial Calipers, Discacciati 320 mm Discs, mounted on ultra light weight forged alloy wheels.

It is claimed to produce 140 hp at 140 kgs. -308 lbs. !

All CF bodywork and extra large airbox.

It's called the RAD-02 "UNO ."

No price listed.

Visually it doesn't do anything for me.

That said, it does look like fun ;D
