  8. Bienvenue,
    Looks like Col de la machine, missed it by one turn a couple of years back. Hope to do better this year with the superduke, maybe follow on for little run down the route Napoleon twisty sections..
     
  9. Thank you very much for your welcome and your few words in French, it’s a pleasure :upyeah:

    Currently I am working on 2 motorcycles in parallel: The ST3R which is giving me a bit of trouble because of an improbable pair of connecting rods
    Pankl titanium rod, 20mm pin but 130 length !
    Normally it doesn't exist!


    And I work on a 916r for the Classic TT :p

  17. Interesting Pictures

    Is this a hobby, or some kind of professional work that you do on bikes ?

    Good luck at the Classic TT - the TT course will certainly test anything mechanical to the limit !
