Well the bike is still going, have almost 1800miles on it already. Have done a few more things to it too. Thing looks beautiful IMO. Ive had good luck with it so far and hopefully getting my license the 28th, ha yeah i know riding with your permit is no good. But check it out and tell me what you think.

Chrome rims coming this winter

May I ask how you came upon the TT part in your name and do you know what TT stands for?

My Ducati TT2 would suit you nicely as it's dry weight is under 300lbs and seat height will accomodate a 5'2" person.

I just came up with a name. mx3TT sounded great so i went with it. Would be nice if it meant twin turbo but since i dont even own an mx-3 anymore my whole name doesnt fit. o well, but there is to many things to change if i wanted a new name.

Sweet man, I think it does a good job of replacing the mx-3. Its not the same, but man I'd love to have a bike like that!!!

From GB originally I think... TT = Touring Trophy

No replacements here ... this will always be a keeper.

I built it basically from scratch. Replica of Factory TT2 Race Bike that won the world TT F2 Championship in 81, 82, 83 and 84. Of course slightly modified to meet vehicle safety inspection standards. What do you think?

This was one of the original factory racers;

Old school

That "Old School" bike still has a lot of grunt for 25 year old technology type 600cc air cooled bike . Gobs and gobs of tork with a dry weight of well under 300 lbs. V-Twin torque out of the corners is the best there is. Top speed was never the aim, cornering, braking and hole shots were it's shining features.

Thats awesome, less then 300 pounds?! damn man. Top speed is fun but thats how you get killed. better off setting it up for twisties.
