Was at Poole Quays yesterday with some of the doods and doodetts from the southwest surfers and came across this little Gem, as informed by Sid Squid its infact a MH900e not a classic but still looks awesome :D

Now the exhaust on this thing was amazing, it gave a stonking v-twin noise and sounded soooo good, the back pressure of the exhaust was huge and Scoobs nearly saw some girl get fired back when the guy left on it!

That's not a Paul Smart rep, that's an MH900e.

This a PS:

It's certainly different. It doesn't float my boat, but I can see why people would like them.

They sold all of the MH900 on the internet I read, that Tereblanche can design some funky bikes.

There was also a Ducati Paso 750 at Poole last night. I thought that bike was the mutts when it first came out.

Definately.

The wonderful Darmah SD, which was the sport/touring version of the mighty 900SS, originally it would have had tubular h/bars, Marzocchi shocks instead of those Koni units, the magnificent Conti 'silencers', (those look like Silentiums or similar copies), and a joke of an electric start which most owners just removed.

I have a mate who's owned a very similar bike, (a '79 model), since the early 80s.

There is a German guy over here that has one. They are lovely and with great dry clutch sound with even better music from the Termi's.
A replica of the bike that Mike Hailwood used when returning to the T.T. races after a good few years abscence and once again kicked a*s! An incredible story when you think about it,1978! :lol:

If ever I had the cash for a bike to just play with,it would without doubt be the 881...gorgeous! :wink:

Personally speaking, this was a nicer looking, if more unreliable, Hailwood rep :lol: Showing me age a tad :lol:

The MH looks like a bad home-build to me, TBH... The PS is so much nicer.
