"There are some things nobody needs in this world, and a bright-red, hunch-back, warp-speed 900cc cafe racer is one of them — but I want one anyway, and on some days I actually believe I need one....

I still want a monoco trossi. Scratch that... I want to build a car that looks like a monoco, but uses a lighter smaller radial engine so that it's actually driveable.

     Pretty cool cars! Too bad I don't have the assets to see about getting another GPZ1100 motor and build one. Bet that would be a hoot to drive!
