Hey Mike, how about turning the swingarm upside down & mount the shock under the motor - like the cobas do ?
... 2 hrs later. Sorry I was wrong about the cobas, but it is still interesting.
The bike I'm thinking of was a japanese bike, but I can't remember any more.
The Bob Brown bike built by Rod Tingate had it, the photo's don't reveal much - but it is stunning !
I have been buying bits & pieces off Rod for years, but no idea how talented he is until 2 yrs ago when I read the story about the
Keiser ? (or a name like that) gp bike built with an outboard motor. Then I saw the B.Brown bike recently.
Wow, mucho respect for that guy.
There is the Britten, but it would be nice to be re-producing something that was a ducati.
