I bought this 550a last year partially restored inc engine .however just after running in she sounded like a can of baked beans in top end despite careful run in and torqueing head twice .top end rebuild followed all written up in repair forum .seems to be fine now and im listening for eveey noise and being prob too cautious .

That Maui Blue A model is really nice, but the Bimota replica is a whole different level of build. That is gorgeous.

Higgspeed 3-into-1 on the GT550. They recently started making them for the GT triples.
The gray GT750 has a Jemco 3-into-1. Jemco was in Texas & made them for the GT triples. The owner retired & sold the business to a company in Kentucky. The new owner makes the 3-into-3s but doesn’t make the 3-into-1s.
