...and comes complete with a mint in box 1:43 scale DeAgostini die cast model of the race bike. Make me an offer.
For £10,000 I'd expect the real thing :wink:

Yep it's a bit of a con that as what engine and gearbox work has been done and then the brakes and suspension to match. Who the wombles are Giannelli exhausts, looked them up and they seem cheap and cheerful, not exactly Titanium Ladybird or full Mori system but they do have a fancy name LOL. The only thing Collin Edwards about that is the paintwork. Hell you could have Tony's SP and put on some rear sets and call it Collin Edwards. Marty had the best SP ever. That bike needed nothing and it was Red so cheaper to insure as long as you didn't list the mods :wink: I'd prefer cheeky Kev's Castrol over this fake one any day. £10,000...they must be on drugs.

This is what you need Paul

Oh no, you have the Atom...that will do. :biggrin

Carl, mine's already got Harris rearsets, and I call it Britney.

It's the wrong time of year to buy any sports bike. It won't sell at that price, but if you want a genuine and unmodified one this might be worth a look and a cheeky offer sub 8k in October/November, after the weather changes and no-one wants to ride except on a commuter.

Alternatively, you can buy a new engine and a non-runner and make a zero miles one for that money, and leave yourself some spare change for a few blingy bits.

I had a feeling Giannelli were popular in the twostroke world many years ago.

Anyway I found this:-

That's interesting on the exhausts. So they are made by Arrow then. Why people have to re-brand things I don't know. It really confuses issues.

That would make them one of the oldest insurance companies around then :lol: It wouldn't surprise me if there is another company that owns Saga, maybe it eventually leads to Lloyds or HSBC. It's the banks that own and control the worlds population. That's how they get away with what they have got away with. Creating a fake currency and monetary system that everyone works to earn and pay back to them in one form or another. A world that revolves around money and greed to line the worlds 1% most richest pockets with Gold. And we only put up with it because we are bribed by the goods provided which we work to make and then buy :roll:
