So £2700 equivalent, + UK taxes.

Bet they won't import it. Sad

Actually, it is a bit big for a monkey bike isn't it!

I know I just need to be banned, but imagine how much of a mint condition Aprilia, Gilera, or TZR RR SP you could buy today with £2700. You'd also have a bike that's getting more valuable or at least rarer every year, instead of a flashy but ultimately worthless Chinq a couple of years later.
