Thanks for the pictures! I've been out of it for a few years due to health BS Hey Joker!
Sorry to hear you're still not doing well. Hope you're on the mend and can make it out soon! I'd love for you to see how far my H2 has come from that 1st years at Don's place when you were helping me out.

A fellow club(AVMS) member attended he rally this year and took a photo of a MV Agusta 125 or possibly a 203.He did not get any info on the bike.Does anyone here that attended the rally know anything of this machine.It had a fairing laying next to it with the number 9 . Thx

Always makes me itching to work on more bikes of mine....!

Thankyou midnightlamp, These two MVs are early 50s,probably built 1953-1954 ..there are only a very few of these bikes in the world and most are in private collections in Europe.When I saw a pic of two of these gear drivin DOHC,external oil pump ,left hand exhaust MVs sitting on the grass at the Paris.Ont show....I just cant imagine what they are doing there... These are factory GP bikes,built to win the ultra lightweight GPs(or 250 class if one is a 203) in the period, everyone of these bikes would have had at least one world champion sitting on the seat at one time or another...all these bikes have a history. Cant imagine anyone would race these bikes today,one(125) sold a few years ago in the UK for 55,000 british pounds If you want to see one look on Cecil Sandfords (1952 world champion on a MV Agusta 125)facebook page
