Pembletons are 2CV kits aren't they?

Crikey... a new R1100 engine - that's a bit of a rarity!

I suspect it will go for crazy-£££££!

The Pembleton brooklands is a 4 wheel model, based on a 2CV chassis and engine initially, but can now take a BMW R or moto guizzi engine for a bit more umph. All up weight in the region of 400 kg with the bmw lump (engine/box rated by bmw for 450-480kg max on the bike so you may even have a reliable set up), so even at the relatively low engine spec you still get good performance.
