MCN Story in 'not true' horror!

Federico Minoli takes a pop at MCN claiming that their reporting is lacking in factual basis.

I would like to use this opportunity to set things straight giving you the real facts about the bike.

I was right when I said, concerning that picture, "looks like they just took the best bits of the 999 and 916 and put them together, ignoring the fact that they don't work together and the end result looks worse than either donor bike." :)

I cannot believe MCN would make something up this way. It's so out of character. :^o
