TT1/F1 rising rate by Theresby. Not identical to the original, but interesting to build. If anyone buys it I have a M900 aluminum swingarm assembly I will sell them cheap. MikeV

Hi Mike, I saw that frame. I guess it's a Thersby. Without wanting to offend anyone, I think it looks rather heavy and cobby. It seems to have a seperate sub-frame for the seat area. Anyone have experience with one of these? Lou

And it uses modern-looking rear sets hanging from the frame, rather than TT style. Still, would be entertaining.

What advantage would this frame have over an early 90's Ducati OEM frame?, weight, strength, geometry?? I know some of the early Super Sports seemed to be weak in the steering head area.
