Davehutch-hutchs 0 Posted April 18, 2012 It is very sad , but one thing I have realized from this is , instead of keeping the bike in A1 condition and selling it for someone else to benefit from it , is to ride the b-king and enjoy it could be dead tomorrow and thats what i intend to do is ride it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I read somewhere recently that sportsbike sales in Italy are 93% down on ten years ago There also seem to be a lot less 'pre-reg' deals kicking around than there were 1-2 years ago when the big names hiked the prices up.BTW I'd expect Redcar will sticker Daves at £2795...
