Interesting take on the Alazzurra.  Notably, there are a LOT of original components -- suspension, motor, brakes, wheels, tank.. but they look very different like this!







This is a Revival Cycles build - I saw it in their shop.  It's pretty much stock, save for the seat, exhaust, and paint.  They said it was a "budget build."

The pipes would cost more than the bike! A lot of work them.
There's a Japanese name for that kind of welding/pipe making that I cant remember. It's indicative of a dark art.

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

I like it. Simplistic, artful, and functional. "Sano" was the term we used to describe clean, lean machines in the 1970s.

They ain't nothing wrong with an equal length 2-1 megaphone exhaust, especially in TT config. Cats with the know how pulled 103hp out of 840ccs... And that's impressive.
