Hi everybody
Yesterday was my birthday, then I take the chance to drive to DM Telai in Bologna to get my own gift.
A TT frame.
On the way back found a good restaurant to celebrate with my wife , my birthday but more the Frame.
Now, the frame, is on my living room.
This is not exactly built but i hope to put my hands on it in winter time.
,ciao Filippo

What a great birthday Filippo, you are a wise man to take your wife for dinner!
She is special to allow you to display the frame!

Hi Paul and Mike
Thank for replying.
My wife she is very understanding and i'm very happy to enjoy the day with her .
I keep in mind this built from years, delaying for same reasons the decision to buy the frame.
Now I'm excited like a child with his new toy..
Filippo

I'm very curious about what your plans are! Looking forward to your build. Any rough ideas?

Hi johnnybravo12
Thank you for asking.
I have two rough ideas or alternatives. And few fixed points.

Starting from the last , I collecting stuff for a TT from years, getting an original 2 into 1 TT exhaust ( don't know of it exactly from the 80's but for sure it is old).
18" 3 spokes Federiconi wheels, and a set of Carlo's masterpieces, Such as front m1r 38 mm 280 mm disk rotor, etc.

18" wheel and 38 mm front fork are good to comply with Italian vintage racing rules.

Engine
On this i have 2 options.
The easiest is to
Install the 513 cc to race the TT 500 class.or building a proper 750cc i belive i will try to run both alternative because i would like to have a 750 cc on this bike one day.

Body work
I like the half fairing on TT then I think to install only the upper fairing with plexiband let the engine on frame in sight.

Ciao
Filippo
