I love the rear brake pedal pad, has a real plumbing look to it, top off a gate valve, magic

Its got P11 oil Tank and sidepanel and the basic layout of the frame is the same as a P11, buts its an oil in frame ?? looks like someone fabricated a frame based on a P11

Why would you think its got an oil in frame??....it has an oil tank

Looks a bit of a "mongrol" with that cheap A65 back hub

Because it says it has an oil in frame design in the description !!, but is currently using an oil tank ... You can also see the cap for this on the frame behind the headstock on the picture showing the top of the tank.

I rather like the look of this. If my other half would allow me to have another bike I would be strongly tempted. Certainly it is a bit different but looks like a lot of fun. :mrgreen:

It also say's the frame is made from "aircraft stainless" so it's clearly a "special" ;)
