Well here she is

http://www.motorcyclenews.com/bikes-for ... 2/7651228/

It's time to move her on before she gets too old and tatty. And as I can't just keep her and put her on a pedestal and polish her. It's time to let someone else look after her :(
Give me a shout if you are interested. I think I've priced her quite competitively so no silly offers please :thumbup:

Sorry that you are having to part with it, are you selling it as standard apart from the suspension obviously and selling the rest as extras as in exhausts or are they going with the bike?

Hi Pirks
I will be selling her with the original pipes.

I've taken the Sato's off and the power commander with a custom map. I need to give the pipes a bit of a clean up. I might offer them with the bike but I would certainly be open to offers.
The Sato's are titanium and built by the R&D department of HRC. I had them shipped over, they cost about £900 new, Power commander would set you back £380 and a custom map about another £200.
What do you think would be a fair price second hand?

Sorry to hear that you are selling up Pete, but only you know when its time to let it go (personally, I`d put it on a pedestal and polish it, but hey........ ;) :lol: )
So what do you have in mind to replace the SP with that is less focused?
Good luck with the sale and someone will be getting a lot of bike for the money. :thumbup:
Cheers

Can't let the cat out of the bag just yet. The Boys on the VTR forum are having too much fun imagining me on a C90 :D
Test ride tomorrow, if the weather is okay, so I might end up spilling the beans then if I get too excited 8-)

Pan European for comfort or maybe a blackbird for speed and comfort

:D Going for a Suzuki GSX S1000f :D

See, told you I couldn't keep a secret for long ;)
Very different from the SP but I recon it could keep up with one no trouble and it can also be driven around town all day with out your wrist collapsing.
Hopefully it will be a good compromise and I won't get bored with it :thumbup:

Price Change.
I've dropped the price to to £6200 to see if I can gather anymore interest before winter. If not, it'll be mothballed until spring.
She's the cheapest around on the web at the moment in her category, so if anyone knows anyone, nows the time to give me a shout :thumbup:

Surprised you've not had anymore interest in it Pete.
