Two words - Feckin Gorgeous!

Talk about pain staking attention to detail and quality.

The sound! Even that has got an air of quality to it - refined almost.

And my God, does Del know his sh1t or what!!

Want it? Oh hell yes!! Problems though.

1) I would have to ride it - no way I could have that amount of dosh sitting in the garage waiting for summer - the wife would plant a bread knife in my chest without a doubt!

2) What else can I have for 10biguns that I can ride all the time. SP2? Blackbird? New Blade? (I like Hondas!) All of which I could get with spare change for some special bits.

Bit of an emotional roller coaster this one! I've given myself a deadline of midday 19/11 to make a decision (partly why Im still up at 23:00 on a school night!!)

Oh yes, that'll be the moriwaki titaniums, finest quality system for the VTR on the planet BAR NONE. :wink2

He ain't got a clue....taught him everything he knows....I wish. :biggrin

That's not a problem in itself. You seem to keep your bikes pretty clean, and Del would be doing a few engine mods (like swapping the ignition for instance) to make it less of an animal for daily use.

There's special then there's SPECIAL!!! Besides, you wouldn't be paying 10k for it, more like 9 given the (crashed!) state of your VTR. Then you got a grands worth of mario fairing to sell on, plus you keep the carbon tank. And Del's got another 500 quids worth of work to do on it.

You know you want to....500 quids worth of titanium bolts...Formula 1 style hose connectors...MV Agusta seat unit....think of the kudos man!!

Your choice at the end of the day, but don't be surprised to see someone riding it after its been in streetfighters magazine (at which point the price will go up). :wink2
