Interesting! Not a standard J Range motor I suspect. I look forward to further posts.

Loads of work gone into this already. Part of an LI frame welded in to the Monocoque chassis to carry the series 3 engine. Part of the J frame removed for greater engine compartment access and therefore the panels needed to be lengthened. Series 3 forks welded to J stem so that S3 10" wheels (Sip tubeless) and hydraulic disc can be utilised. Building a 230 Mugello Ultimate to go in there. The square hole in the legshields is for easy cable access and will be closed with a petrol flap and covered by the legshield toolbox which has had loads of work to get it to fit.
Can't wait myself for it to be done, it's gonna be megga. You will love the paint but gonna keep that under my hat for now.

Very cool indeed though I wouldn't like to change a spark plug on it , are you planning to have a Vespa ET4 style inspection door fitted so you can access the plug easier? Paul

Plenty of room to change the plug Paul, that's why the panels have been extended. As for ET4, I ain't got a feckin clue mate.
