suprise Swapsies!

Post  Eddie990 Sun Sep 14 2014, 21:23

Bought this earlier in the year.....

Swapsies! E492b1b6365fc7884ffd19365d8b778a

Great bike but far too much for me on the road, the inevitable outcome would have involved blue flashing lights followed by months of inactivity. Incarceration or invalidity beckoned.

So, recently a deal became available on this.....

Swapsies! 98d53bbeab2fe0857794da03fc8afd9e

Same bike but German IDM Superbike spec Shocked

177bhp
173kg
WP Competition forks & shock
Brembo stoppers
Forged Marchesini wheels
KLS Quickshifter
Nemesis Traction Control

Anyway, a deal has been done and in a few days she'll be tucked up in my garage to be fettled as my track day bike. Pleased as punch! Very Happy

All I need now is a custom made baffle for the 109-112dB exhaust  confused_2

Anyone got a private road?

Cheers, funnily enough it's been my dream bike for a while! Nobody really knows how many were made but they reckon less than 25 left the factory.

Chris - having attempted to follow your 1190 once, all I can do is echo Rosco's thank Christ for that.

Enjoy pal.

Cheers Billy. It's been a bit of a rocketship!

Can't wait to get out on track with the new one, but it'll be March next year I think.

Unfortunately Katie doesn't seem keen to look after a newborn baby and the dogs whilst I bugger off to Spain on a Euro track day.....

I don't know, some people can be so selfish.
