I received a email from Lukas today with his finished bike:

After six months the bike is finished.
Saturday I solved the last problem with clutch and tested in a country road out of my home. No full gas, the engine is new.
Simply the best bike that I ever tried. Ok, the suspensions are new but they are not a modern kayaba or showa. But the engine is terrible!!!
Like an horror movie :)
I have to thank you , your email with recommendations and designs were precious

next project: Honda CR500 or Honda CR250 1995 or 1996...
