That's a rare find being zero mileage, although a lot of money :)

I see they also have an SP2 for the same money, now where did I put that lottery ticket :wink: :-

That SP1 has been on there for years.
I think they are just using them for an advert and have no intention of selling.....unless you are dumb enough to pay that price :wink:

Surely if these have 'never been run' in 18 or so years they might well need their engines stripping and rebuilding?

I have wondered about that also. A major inspection in the least would be necessary. We all know that rubber/neoprene seals would be subject to deterioration. That will always be a problem for stored bikes - the lack of running can be detrimental.

Never had fuel in it..... What, not even in the factory??? Hmm.... That's a bold claim.
Anyhow, what a waste of a bike.

I'd definitely want a test ride for that money. Maybe for the Wales meet weekend?
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.
