TBH i dont know how many there are left ,the one you have is the one that spend some years on the IOM

GP star in the US had mine along with alot of other rumi bits but only one complete bike which is the one ive now got

also in the 90s there was a mag in the UK called RPM if you can mike got hold of a september 94 one it has a good write up of one of crafars rumi 45s in it

dont have the medd one any more
should have said had, not have!

a guy i knew bought all the stock from the reciever when medd went under.

there was tons of factory spares, he was broken into some time later and they all went with engines,bikes and spares.

i never knew if anything was recovered, but some of the bike appear to have re surfaced!

its amazing how many race bikes have blank frames and no number on the engine..........

Not really sure.
The engine is a genuine NL5 Factory numbered engine and the covers are coated with a yellow plastic, looks like they have been dipped!

I have seen red ones in Japan too.

Maybe someone out there knows more?
