Here is a video of the bike shot now, start up, idle and rev.

That is an awesome bike build.  Checking out your videos, I see a Fiat Abarth 850.  Yours?  If so, excellent choice of vehicles.

Lordy, that is beautiful! I think it's the prettiest 750 I've seen.

The illuminated buttons and female-voiced ready message are astonishing. Did you make the button housings?

This is as far as I know the same basic tank used on the T3 and the Convert, etc., which is of course routinely dissed in favor of the V7 Sport tank. You've convincingly demonstrated its fundamental beauty.

Great job.

Thanks!

The buttons and housing are from rebel moto, the tank i used are from V50 and has a similar shape as  T3 but smaller.

Yes, the 850 coupe is mine. Its a 1967 modded by me as a homage to the Abarth 1000 OTS/R. I also have a 1967 850 Spider and a 1975 Lancia Beta Montecarlo.(Scorpion in the US)

Not only is it pretty, but it's my kind of ride.

If someone set this bike and a stock Nevada side by side and said "OK Lannis, your assignment is to ride this bike to Texas and bike, pick one" I'd pick the cafe version.  I'd probably hole up during all day rain 'cause of no fenders, but otherwise ..... !

But once you got to Texas, you'd turn around and say "Where's Fay?"

She'd take one look at that bike and run the other way.   She's always been faster than me, I'd never catch her.

An ugly bike with Fay on the back, or a great looking bike without Fay........ not much downside either way.

Congratulations Roar, Great build, both the paint scheme and theme are fabulous, however blue is my favourite colour. I replayed you firing it up a few times, so cool.

Just one man’s opinion. 👍

     Very tastefully done !  :thumb:  :bow:

     What a transformation, and I'm surprised how healthy & basso profundo sounding it is with those Lafranconis.
