Exhaust doesn't follow the line of the bike. That'll need to be fixed....

What is so special about it? I saw some decent SP01's for about 3500-4500 pounds here, SP02's are a bit more expensive.

I'm sure that could be changed with the gentle application of a scaffold bar.

I'll hang on to my money anyway, I don't fancy getting beached on a speed bump.

I'd rather have an SP-1, an SP-2 and £20k to spare for something else. If it was one of Joey's race bikes, sure, but it's a 'dealer special' with some extra stickers, an aftermarket yoke and a few grand in (dated) performance parts. Given that it's 0 miles, it's definitely valuable. But I'm not sure whether it's worth more than a standard bike with 0 miles.

Trouble is, as soon as you use it, you blow at least 50% of it's value (whatever that is, sticker price isn't the same as holding cold cash).

Unless you've got the money to burn, you'd be better off putting it in a museum for 10 years, then selling it, but where's the fun in that?

One sold at a Bonhams auction, this year, for circa £7k, if I remember correctly. An as new, unused, R7 also sold for under £20k so there is no way this is worth £30k.

Correction. The Dunlop SP1 sold for £13k, and the R7 £23k.

£28.33 per mile before fuel, insurance and the like.

If you really want a turd slow chuggy bike with sporty pretensions, why not spend £4k on a normal bike and another few £k on tarty bits.

Or, as ever, better... spend £2k on a track bike and £28k on trackdays Smile.

And that didn't sell at 13.1k.

The "classic" vehicle market is seriously farked just now, a lot of people are going to catch some big colds, once it bottoms out again.

I would rather spend 10k on a bike, 5k on mods.. the rest on petrol and track days Wink

£30k is a lot of money for a 13 year old bike. It keeps its value with 0 mileage I suppose. You dare to ride it once and then it will be worth only £15k Wink

30K would pay a nice chunk of my mortgage off. Or buy this https://item.mobileweb.ebay.co.uk/viewitem?sbk=1&nav=SEARCH&itemId=131032661347
But I wouldn't spend it all on one bike. Unless I was so minted that I had no mortgage, a merc and a big marble plinth in one of my east wing lounges that needed something on it.

For that I could buy a Ducati 848 and a Ferrari (QV), and a Maserati (3200) and still have change to service them (parts only) and go for a piss up.

That's presuming someone else would pay £30k for it.
Very unlikely, I'd say.
