Salve Ennedue and Silvestro !

First it is OK with that discussion regarding the handle bars.

I have no problem following youre discussion.
And I will not be confused.. :P
I am only crazy to have a hobby like this.. hahaha:=)


Regarding the handlebars it was due to give as little fron area at possible.
I also like that "Jarno Saarinen" riding position and use it on my Minarelli.
It feels perfekt when you ride the bike:=)

I am using Google translator so I will be able to read what you guys write :=)

A whole new wourld has open up due to that program :=)

If we start with youre question :
Is the bike on top a orginal Monark.
The answer is Yes !

I have been in contact with Göran Henningsson today, to confirm the legacy of this bike.
This is the only bike that probably still alive today of them two bikes.
According to Göran the bike is in France at a colectors house.
It is probably for sale but the price tag is hallarius..
Where the other bike is we dont know if it exist or not:=(

Two years ago Göran started to look after his old bikes but they were not to be found or way too expencive.
That lead to build a new bike the third one.
Göran had all the orginal drawings so the task of make a new one was only to be done by a good
craftsman.
Also find "orginal" parts from that period, or look simular to that.

I will come back tomorrow or so, to continue to tell the story about Monark.

We keep in touch my friends.

Arrivederci!
Roffe
