That is one seriously-good-looking bike!
Not sure about the price though??

No doubt he/she is chopping it in for a HP2.

Now that looks v nice indeed - in fact it's the first 12S where a bellypan has looked right on one imho.

You're right there!
Where do you start?
Easy to spot are;
wrong cans;
wrong bellypan;
red line too deep
wrong head protectors
silver frame
...no wonder he's selling it!

I think you're being a touch too critical
It is a stunning bike, all the same.

...if you want to copy something ; you have to do it right...
...BTW...
...for 2008 the VH-racer has red wheels (looks better IMO)...
...and the custom made Laser, is a full Akra now...

Nice bike - The Van Harten bike has got loads of mods - some so suttle and others not so.
How he spent 15 grand though is beyond me.
I like the way the checquer plate is reflecting off the belly pan - makes me want to get a sheet of it and hammer out a belly pan in nothing but checquer plate...

...I know ; the picture is a bit crap...
...but this is the racer as it is today...
...took the pic yesterday at the F800GS / F650GS introduction...
...the 800GS is a good looking bike BTW...
...just to remind you ; this is the 'replica'...
