Nice but it cannot be a Ballabio. The Ballabio V11 variant was introduced in 2003 and it was red. It had a small cockpit fairing and the new engine paint.
A similar version in grey and brown with some Öhlins parts was called V11 Cafe Sport.

Beautiful. These pictures should be moved to the Bike Porn thread.

One thing that the GRiSO has that would improve the looks even more (which are great) is the plug wires integrated into the valve cover.

you could employ a rocker cover off an 1100 GRiSO or a 2V, 1200 Sport to achieve that - I believe they fit nicely. Saw a bloke a few years ago that had fitted the same rocker covers as on the Ballabio to his 1100 GRiSO. Options, options.

Hi
I agree with Janguzzi - this is not a Ballabio. It seems to be a 1st series KR V11. The lower attachment to the engine casing are missing and it is the KR fuel tank with the cushion on top and the fuel pump outside the fuel reservoir. Front forks are also KR, as well as the silver engine/gearbox painiting. The wheels are the black ones of the later vehicles.
