Interesting stuff indeed FE - Godet was no doubt a true master of his craft. You were honoured to meet him indeed. I guess when you bought yours?
You might not be a fan of this, and we’ve seen the vid before, but it’s worth another look. Possibly the most beautiful ever built!? Try not to throw anything at the screen

Not for the purists of course and Godet would have hated the brake disks as you recount - god only knows what his thoughts would be on fuel injection and USD forks! I wonder what his assessment of the bike as a whole would have been though - as a modern iteration.
It’s a bastard (by the adjective meaning) but I think that’s it’s truly magnificent! Then again, I’ve never ridden the real thing!
