If you reckon the RM/BSA is awful, what about an '82 Maico/B44 for the pre 85 class?  ::)  Frank Veradi from Western Australia is responsible for this little piece of de-engineering.

Marc mate, would you consider swapping a fully rebuilt and nicely modified 250 Ducati NC engine for the B44 motor?
Be the envy of the Tokyo cafe racer set (tiddler class) with your own Italian Stallion! 
I'm serious actually Marc, I'm considering turning my Hindall into a serious pre 70 class 4 stroker after seeing the Cavells and Lawsons B44s go at the Nats.

Mark , yes the Cavell boys are a class act on those Pre 70 .     The 441 is such a compact little unit

Hi Firko, I would help you if I could mate, but this motor will probably end up in my Cheney as it is getting the Mark Cook clutch and Carillo rod deal. Then the one in the Cheney I will probably put back in the BSA frame and then use my bolt on Mitesse kit for it (yep they made a Rickman conversion kits for BSA A10 frame).

yeah hideous, if you are going to build a hybrid at least have good taste to improve at least one of the bikes involved.
