Personally I love the paint - is it still in the dealer's?

Was it you who had pics of that SP1 before? You gotta ask yourself why it's not been sold yet? Track tool for the last owner wasn't it?

Didn't sell so dealers chucked it out. He has it at home now....yea was track day tool so no mot or tax but I can't get it out of my mind.... trying to decide whether to follow it up....logic has gone out of the window....you know the feeling....want it so much I can taste it..sold the CBR600 so have the cash...bought several disasters following that taste in my life!!!! SWure we can negotiate hard on this!

Oh Alright then...Its not hideous, but it is a bit GAY.
If you opened a sweet wrapper that was that colour, the sweet would almost certainly be Fudge.

You won't be disappointed with the bike as a trackday tool. I still have pangs of regret at selling mine. Grunty, but quick revving, sweet handling, stable and they sound gorgeous with different cans on. Gear it down though. I went 2 extra teeth on the back. Perfect.
As a second bike or if you never take a pillion. Go for it.

feckin minging is my opinion,

but as i dont have to ride it or pay for it that matters not,

but the answer for me would be yes it is hideous.

good looking AND modest
cmon Wilf!! dont be shy and beat about the bush!! :t just tell Bill he has no "style" sense, and his choice of bike sucks in your opinion!! I'm sure he will appreciate your "diplomatic" entry into opinion giving!! :rolleyes:
my own "umble" opinion, nice bike :bow: shame about the colour!! :dunno:
 

Wolfie

i was not shy!!!!

i gave my opinion though it will not or should not matter one single bit. if it floats yer boat then buy the fecker and get on with it, sit around thinking about it and its gone.
