| Keith Williams Difazio 705GT Only one made with Ducati engine. Whilst the looks might not be everyone's liking but a very interesting bike; Keith reports that the handling is great, easily as good as modern stuff through the twisties. Note electric starter as well. Apparently on a standard bike this was useless when the engine was cold, as the battery was too small. On this bike the battery is mounted under the tank and large enough to do the job. Nice bloke Keith I left him pondering about buying a ratty but complete Spanish 350 Scrambler from a stall beneath the balcony! It it turns out bad please don't hold me responsible! | ||||
| 250 Daytona also Keith's which he rescued in a poor state from someone's shed. Exhaust is nowhere near as loud as it looks. | ||||
| Gorgeous 175 Silverstone restored in 6 months by Barry Jones. Will be competing in this years MotoGiro after which I'm sure it'll look a bit less shiny! | ||||

| Ducati Owners Club Stand. Unfortunately by the time I got round to taking some photos they were pulling it apart. A big thanks to all involved especially Steve Rose, Graham Stoppani, Debbie Morrey (apologies to the rest but names are not my strong suit please mail me if and I'll ad you). I think there was 14 bikes there with a 35 year spread, about twice as many as last year. I didn't spend much time there despite taking the Shotgun down, as I was busy spending a fortune on bits for the project bikes! So I abused the stand as a good storage area for my treasure. I did speak to a few people over the 2 days ( almost persuaded a guy from the thumper club to buy a Belgian 350 Scrambler for restoration which was tatty but 100% original) and met up with a few fellow Bevelheads. | ||||

| I spotted this little SL50 beauty just as we were about to load up and leave. How I managed to miss it inside for two days I don't know. The elderly owner told me that it had been timed in a former life in the I.O.M at over 82mph (131KmH) on the mountain section of the course! | ||||
