goldwing with painted valve covers

The valve covers look like no Gold Wing I've ever seen, and the frame looks like an Egli with a down tube. I'm stumped.

I'm not sure if this was the one that went into the Brabham fan car.

Mazaratti made some small displacement motorcycles.

I understand that he selected this engine as it was easy to get out of the car since all the body work had previously "dissolved" in the rain :wink: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

There is the DOHC 16V version too.

Too many moving parts. Mechanics nightmare. Like a Guzzi V8, nice to admire but I wouldn't want to own one.

The Laverda V6 engine designer was a former Maserti engine designer, Giulio Alfieri

Back to the original post the Alfa engine looks to be a 1.5 or 1350 8v probably a 1.5. Quite a long production run and a good selection of cars with those engines even put in a nissan. But the frame what is that? I not a Goldwing or CX its like a California but has a wrapping seat frame?

Looks to be an Alfa motor shoehorned into a BMW frame with a BMW tank.

Actually I think that is an early Seeley frame with a Laverda gas tank .

Could be.

Could be.
The frame is throwing me , all one piece so not beemer , and not quite right for a Seeley , although it may be a modified Seeley , or heck , maybe a one-off . Relatively certain that is a Laverda fuel tank , the forks are Ceriani road race models , I think .

Looks very much like it has a BMW gearbox and rear drive. frame could certainly be a one-off or must have been modified quite a bit to make everything fit together.
Cool bike and cool project.
The Boxer engine was also used by Alfa Romeo in the Alfasud Sprint and in the 33 where the 1,7 16v version is from. I can't quite remember if there was smaller versions than 1300cc but they came in 1300cc, 1400cc, 1500cc and 1700cc. only the 1,7 existed in a 16valve version the others was only 8 valve. early 1700cc was also with 8 valves.
