It started at a super-low sum

I would almost guarantee that it has only a few bidders, who - for some crazy reason - think that even though their bids were £2,000 lower than market value/reserve - that they would somehow "steal" it from the seller - if they happened to have the highest bid at the time.

It's a reasonably-well specified bike. It'd be interesting to see what it goes for (if it does)

Looks in very good condition with tasteful mods, nice colour too. Has been well looked after i,d say going by the photos. As you say, will be interesting to see if it sells and for how much.

I told the missus that this is the bike I should buy with all the bits on and let the silver one go or swap the goodies over. It works out a lot cheaper. The Ohlins alone brand new is £1600 with VAT from Wollaston BMW and that was the cheapest quote

. Needless to say she didn't agree with my logic.

If it doesn't reach reserve - I wouldn't be surprised if the "extras" appeared on here/Ebay for sale..........

I doubt that the seller isn't aware of the value of the bike/parts.

Nice colours, would look classier with White rear wheel and black front. Dunno why he does not put original shocks back on and punts ohlins on?

Well - it appeared to end at £2,500

For a bike with Remus exhaust, panniers, Ohlins F&R.............

I can't believe it went for so little - the fella must have withdrawn it??

Anyone know?

Difficult to tell Al, you cannot get a clue by looking at his latest seller feedback, unless this is it but I cannot see the link?..
