This is the pile of rust that started the project.  We risked our lives to salvage the chassis from a building in danger of collapse. After de-rusting  all that was left was the frame, battery box and swingarm, then began the least cost efficient way of building a special, a piece by piece accumulation of parts.  Brakes from Italy, suspension from England, ignition from the US, all of you have done the same – stand there and thrown hundred dollar bills at the project.

The A10 Chassis has an 850 Commando motor and transmission. The motor has a 270 Degree crankshaft and special camshaft.  The bike did not work right until a Power Arc ignition was installed and then the bike came good.  The combination of powertrain and chassis has resulted in a light and nimble bike that does everything I hoped it would.
