Having missed out on a SB6 a couple years ago. I'm now thinking about getting/trying for one again.

Are there any for sell out there in the UK?

Thanks
Brian

There was a black and red one on ebay the other week, don't think it sold so may be back advertised soon.

As EC says depends on budget / requirements.
Do you want white/black/red , MK1 or 2 , standard / modified, cheap project , mint etc etc.

What part of the UK you in ? not that it matters much for buying but might be a fellow Bimota owner near you that could assist.

I suppose I've got no real preference. Not too bothered about it being a mint example. Maybe the twin headlight version

He asked for a SB6 rather than a SB6R

The 6 is prettier - but the airbox is smaller which limits the power a bit
The 6R is a better bike - it has ramair which makes the airbox bigger, the saddle is more comfortable the forks have adjustable rebound as standard

Yep I did see that one. It looks well nice, however I was fancying a 6.
Have you had experience of a 6R?
Cheers for the link
