My 1970's Montesa Impala is almost rebuilt. Here are some sneak photo's.

Just need to get the wiring completed and she will be good to go ;)

Naturally....I did nothing except crash it in the first place ....and then write cheques.

There are to many rows of white dots above the word Cohiba.

Clearly a fake.

Find a more trustworthy vendor.

;)

Man, she's gonna be a beauty when she's all done!

Forgot you had the bike Rob ......... hasn't the guy had it for 2 years now. :D Hope everything works on it as you did make him rush and all ;)

Lise...you are such a woman ;)

Wowwwww Rob, That's a beauty :D

I'm sure you'll have fun on the road riding that bike mate ;)

Let me try and guess ,with what cigar ? ;)

Looks great!

and right at home next to a scooter........

The Montesa is a 2 stroke Cafe racer ....175cc of pure poser (not power).

It will look right at home around the local cafe's as I duck into breakfast ;)

I didn't think you were still allowed to ride it......

There are some rules: No wine glass...no cigar in mouth...no daughter on the back....no slalem around the ponderosa.

I can't afford to rebuild it again :D

That is gorgeous...simply stunning.

Ride well...

2 down, 2 to go...

Posted

Bloody gorgeous! :D:ok:

We'll have to go for a spin when you finally get it back!

Cheers,

George

CZR 01 with the Cohiba tank. . . didn't know you had a bit of Arab sheik(African dictator yes) in ya Rob.

Apparently it's what he orders across the street at the bathhouse.

:D

So clean and shiney, it will be interesting to see what it looks like the first time you lay her down going around a corner. B)

Rob, there really is a certain "African Dictator" thing to all of this........ I can just picture Idi Amin back in the day owning one of these :P

Out of curiosity, would there be any form of trademark issues in you using the Cohiba logo ?

Why not kitsch it up a bit and put some EL bands on the handle bars/forks....... you know you want to B)

Great idea. Make it an Exclusivo Australia band. The Cohiba Montessa Australia ER. Time to call HSA for next year's ER.
