I think I'd get some carbon wrap for them.....or have them sprayed satin black. But as for the orange Cabin paint, a matter of taste. Not mine, but for this price, I could live with it for a few months of fun, and then punt it on for a healthy profit!

Not often bargains like this turn up. The guy selling is into boats and yachts and all things Hoi Polloi, so this is just loose change in his back pocket by the look of it. 100% feedback and not a single complaint in any of his sales.

Certainly worth raiding the piggy bank....

sp's are worth more in standard trim, the same bike with original fairings and exhaust would fetch more money.

To me, that's worth more than having money in the bank. There's "not quite" double profit for just a wash and wax, a weekend of tidying up and turning it straight out the door again.

Even without being in standard trim, it's still not to be sneezed at - especially when he also offers a "best offer". I reckon £2,400 would bag it.

I'd have it in a flash if I could raise the extra funds. But alas, I can't. :(

It's actually my Demijohn, and contains any loose change I choose to throw in there. My system is: I only keep in my pocket, 1 of each small coin (1 x 5p, 1 x 10p, 1 x 20p etc). It saves having a heavy pocket full rattling round, and p1ssing the woman of at the petrol station. So, anything "more" than the quota goes into the "change jar".

Out of curiosity, I tipped the lot out on the floor and counted it up. OOOOH - I have all of £6 and 45p. :( :Cry1:

Add that to the £3.78 I have in the bank, and I think I can hold back on the holiday to the South of France for now.

It ain't gonna with this SP1, although I may get to buy all 4 bulbs in the indicators though..... :(

:eek2 That would be sacrilege to the great God Moriwaki.
It may be that your whole purpose in life is simply to serve as a warning to others.
