I was told that there as a trade stand at mini-50 in Melb that had both honda & Bimmer Twinky conversion donks on display,,, anyone know who they were?

seems they were telling people some pretty weired things I`m just interested to get in touch with them & here what they have to say for myself.

Nope only bimmer. It was Link Automotive. They also had their s/c kits on display.

Josh at Mini imports had his 8 port westlake head there also. I know not a bike head but still a crossflow (in case people got confused).

Link had a K1200 head sitting on top of a bare block, with the Specialist Components front plate sitting with it. Didn't ask them about it, but I spoke to the guy with the clubman van with the K100 head and motorbike carbs. Was great to see one of Matt's kits bolted together and running!
