Found this link on another site and don't recall seeing it here. If by some chance you just happen to enjoy fine motorcycles you'll enjoy this video:

One or two of you might even know the fellow. I've heard of his collection but have never seen it.

I've always dreamed of owning an original MV Agusta and have had a weakness for Italian bikes that only got worse after owning some Aprilias. As my dear ol' dad used to say "Why wasn't I born rich instead of handsome?"

Thanks Doug,

Things of great mechanical beauty to behold.

The electrics in some of those Italian masterpieces is another story..

Cheers,

If there's one motorcycle that has always tripped my switch..

The Laverda 750 SFC.

I always dreamed of finding one in a barn or something. Sadly, every single one ever built is now accounted for. Damnit!

Indeed, Simon, so many wonderful bikes and so little time...and money.

A friend has one in a room under his house...less than 10K k's on it.
He uses it as marshalling bike at the occassional track day. Stock bar the muffler.
