Bike No2 joins the Rocket 3 in Jagster's garage.....

Well.....I didn't think i'd be saying this, but i've gone and purchased another bike which should contrast the riding experience I get from my 2020 Rocket 3R.
Ever since I started out on the Rocket, I have always said that I would stick to a one bike garage.
I used to have a few bikes at the same time, but when I got back onto a bike two years ago, after nearly five years away from riding, due to health challenges, I made myself a rule to have only one.

I have broken that rule, but I felt that in this specific case, it had to be broken. Why?

Well, this bike is one that I have drooled over from the first time I saw the initial concept almost 10 years ago and i've never seen one for sale in the UK ever, so, when I stumbled across one for sale quite close by, I felt I needed to get up close and personal to one of these machines before I give my last breath. Before I knew it, i'd thrown down a deposit and gone home to have a lie down to cool off and to confess my sins to my good lady.
She said she understood that I just couldn't help myself, and then of course punished me.....which was very nice, but I shouldn't get side-tracked, so let me get back to the the subject of the bike....

So......just for a bit of fun, I thought I would give you a teaser shot, just to find out who has the keenest eye in order to name the bike.

You helped us out a lot by having the Bimota insignia is in the pic so I'd guess a Bimota but beyond that I'm at a loss to tell you what model it is, so I won't be winning the contest.

Well at least you got into the spirit of things and had a go at the riddle, so well done you .

That said, you are correct in the statement about being wrong. So one out of two is nothing to be ashamed of

Actually, the symbol is a Brembo logo mark..... you even got me going on that comment. I had to look it up incase I said Brembo when it wasn't

I think I know. A Rascal scooter. What did I win?

I'm gonna say Aprilia?...maybe?

You wanna win so bad, don't you .......
Your suggestion is so out there, it's worth a prize on it's own , after all, it's the taking part that counts.

Good suggestion, but no.
Wrong tree to be barking up.

To be fair to everyone, it's not an easy one to get right. She's a bit special........that's a tiny hint....

I’m guessing that’s an Buell, it’s belt drive and that idler wheel.

Well done sir! You're about 65% accurate.

I do not expect that anyone can get closer than that, with only that one photo.
So you definitely win the first round

So....now the challenge moves up a notch (if anyone is still awake enough to be interested...lol... hopefully it's still interesting and folks are still pondering over what it might be)

I'll post up a second photo with an extra clue, because the next bit is (I think) very difficult.

So.... it does indeed have a Buell powerplant.

The rest of the bike is European both in design and manufacture.

So....a clue to assist a bit further is: The country of origin begins with a letter that is not a vowel.
