Yep... bit of a story frown
Sadly, my housemate just passed away and as the photos show he liked his lawnmowers lol.
Anyway, the Mark II and the Impala are mine, but the rest belonged to him. His sister (his only family) wants a couple of them for sentimental reasons (more than fair enough) but Ima gonna try my best to get a hold of the Twin.
Story on that one is a mate of his gave it to him about 3 years ago for free! When he got it it was a runner (and yes, as others have said, the sound they make is pretty awesome) but looking at it now I see he's pulled the carby back of it to clean it out.
Not sure how it is at the moment, I've been googling away for the last week, and every result for these beasts leads back to this forum and Mr Davis and blumbly lol.
Lats time the Twin ran it was fine (about a year ago), ATM I'm waiting to see how ownership of his possessions turns out before I go touching it.
Mine are the 160 MkII and the Impala, the MkII was my pops and I've just started looking at it (my 160) last night (covers off (ZOMG the chewed out and seized screws!) and started washing the carby up) so it's the first cab off the rank.

edit: that's the only 160 at the moment, but I'm chasing up another one I know about as a parts donor.
