This mighty nice VB 360 belongs to our very own Chris (Spanish Amada). I've looked it over and can't find a single blemish from the pics. Chris obviously has a lot of patience to put together such a concorse resto.
He obviously has a love of the garden as well judging by the flora in the background.
I think he should combine his two loves and put that 550X18 Metzeler right through that bed of Rosa pimpinellifolia
Nice job Chris..... ;)

That is indeed a nice looking Monty. 8)

Yes I had the pleasure of having a good look over this beautiful VB a couple of months ago when I went to his place to pry his F11 pride and joy from him ;D He also has quite a few more Monty's and a some other nice vintage bikes.
Great work Chris.
Regards Stan.

He also has a very nice VB 125, 72 Montese Cappra MX too well done Chris.

nice bike, looks very purposeful. That chain tensioner looks like a piece of work.
I'm assuming the number plates were angled that way originally? I've never seen one so I don't know. I thought Ross's levers were bent too ;D
-
Beautiful bike. The fork colour looks perfect in the picture. Chris do you have a code or similar.
I even like the tank stripes and is that a billet fuel tank cap?
Chain tensioner and number plates look spot on to me ;)
I hope the RT1 sleeps in the shed while the Monty is in the drawing room ::) ;D ;D ;D Joking

Having known Chris for quite a few years, I can tell you that he does nothing in half measures. His bikes are a natural extension of his personality...
Bring on the "working class" RT1 for some Pre 70 fun!

Chris can you confirm it your master piece is a 66M or 73M ??? the photo detail around the cylinder and pipe is a little difficult to see. Originally I was certain it was 66M but the pipe shape has me a little doubtful now. Good old 66M himself was excited about he yellow plates. As we know the '77 & '77 250 and 360 are almost identical.

montynut bike is a 66m and yes the fuel cap is a billet [thanks jared]. big k lost the original ;D but the big k can put on a good coat of paint on a tank. thanks ross for posting photos cheers chris

I had a '78 VB 360 once, wait a minute, that's it! Well done on finishing her off Chris, I know a place it will be safe. The bike is original and was bought from the original owner a few years back. Wonder how I can get it back....
Chers,
K

All this praise will be going to his head 8), just leave some Monties in NSW for us to enjoy will ya!

I told her you have serious issues and I'm just looking after it for you ;D Hopefully it will just blend in with the others and she will forget about it ;)
