Hi Steve,
Bought it last March, 2 owners from new, single spark with 33 thousand miles on it.
It`s meant to be ridden, not for showing in the living room!!!!!!
It`s not mint but in very good condition for nearly 14 years old.

Looks like an ultra-tidy bike with the good options added.........
If it were me - I'd swap the dark tank pads for clear. The bike has sufficient graphics in my opinion.
Other than red rim-tape, which even the most vociferous of detractors - would secretly admit......... is QUALITY
Al

If I am ever on life support - Unplug me......
Then plug me back in..........
See if that works .....

Hi Al,
You`re quite right. I too would like to get rid of the dark tank pads but not sure how to and don`t want to damaged the paint work underneath.
Any ideas welcome!!!!
Ps Iv`e had rim tape on other bikes before but in blue. Maybe that's the reason the bike couldn`t go faster

Hi Mitch,
Not sure the RWB Replika is quicker actually!!
Anyway if you mix the three colours together RWB you`d probably get a pink bike going at plus 100 MPH
Just a thought

Most sticky things can be removed by using a hair dryer to warm the sticker and gently peel off.
Trick is go slow and be gentle
