Here are a couple more shots. I have to get a few wires repaired and then I can get the fairings on. Mechanically its nothing too fancy. Street bike not a racer. Roller/motor is a 650ss dry clutch, motor stock except it has some kind of a cam and a silenced megaphone. The frame has been modified to use F1 rear sets/controls. In the back end just some longer shocks, hollow axle and 520 chain conversion. Front end is stock with clipons, F3 top clamp, aircaps, stock F08's with some floaters.

Hi Cal
What a beautiful bike you get.
Congratulations
Fairings look similar to an 851 and the tail is very close to Carlo/Moretti bike.
Very nice built, even a mix of Alazzurra and Pantah stuff.
I had that bodywork (tank and tail), but shame on me I sold because at the time I didn't like the shape of the tank. Now looking at your bike and other that mount the same bodywork I realize the potential of it.

By the way in mid 80's that bodywork cost 600.000 italian lire, a lot of money for the time.
What about the engine?
Enjoy
Filippo

By the way I just realised now that is an Alazzurra Frame, with Pantah foot holder and looking like brace to hold the exhaust muffler.
Very interesting

Thanx Filippo....
Your observations are correct. On the styling.....it is an unusual mix of parts/styling. I have a weakness for the oddball bikes.

Mike and Lou were talking about the seat......here is a pic of the seat mounted. It is a twin seat, looks pretty good with the cowl on it.....not good with it off so I wont show that view :-)

This really is a very nice and tidy bike. And should make others puzzled when they see it. Custom, or….what? So, will you ride it? MikeV

Thanx you guyz for the nice comments.

Mike.......yes, I will ride it some. I have 7 bikes right now and 6 of 7 are in running order and licensed and insured. But I am starting to think I need to cut back as its getting too expensive here in California to keep em all road ready. The minimum license plate now is a little over $150 per year then add insurance, then some maintenance here and there, new batteries, etc. I should probably try to get down to 3 or 4 bikes at most.
