V8 Ducati

Really this sort of thing is Forsyth's thing. Although I'm probably wrong saying that and the old man will berate me for posting pictures of a Ducati with a bastardised engine. That it may be, but it's a serious bit of handywork...

Housed in a Ducati 900 chassis, it features a custom-built V8 engine with a 44mm bore and 56mm stroke giving it 868cc. I can't pretend to know all the ins and outs of the engineering that's gone into this but it looks beautiful..
