Wow indeed.
Somebody has seriously overpayed. The seller must be doing cartwheels. If the sale goes through.
In comparrison, I paid a grand less for my 06 r1200s with a full akrapovic titanium system ,sports pack and loads of carbon fibre ,full service and a new front tyre. 6000 miles. All from a dealer.
Strange how the market goes sometimes.

They are nice tho, but, as Gus says, "If the sale goes through." :wink:
I had this on my ebay 'Watch List' and at one stage was informed "The seller has reduced the reserve price". :!: Worth noting, the highest losing bid was £7001.00. :shock:

Mr. Spock is my role model so be advised; I possess no (discernible) sense of humour.

It's all VFR (DCT) round here now. STILL missing my 1100s tho.

That's crazy - there's a suggested alternative, with panniers, that looks equally nice, for £5.5k from a dealer.
Fucked Off!

That's an unbelievable price :shock:

As has been said - "if the sale goes through"

I suspect a bit of shill-bidding, which may or may not have gone the seller's way..........

As Gus says - compare that with his last purchase.......... :shock:

I doubt if the one for sale is any better condition than the one I bought last year..... almost £3k more :shock: (cost of panniers offset by induct/powerfilter).........


[Edit - just realised - it's not a Mamola, but the faster RWB one ]
Al :D
