£7999

I personally like them but they look a lot better in a different colour.

I saw one of those last week in Largs , i never knew a wee bike like that could sound so good :!:
Also my brotherin law told me his boss had bought an old bike and insured it for both of them,a Honda xbr500 single, i could just about remember them, so went on to web for a look, there was none on Ebay,and only one for sale in bike trader,so must be very rare :!: ,i think he said they only produce 30bhp or so.
