It was nearly to far for me to get the DB4 to , and I'm only 40 miles away , but Bimota's and especially Ducati engined ones have a mind of their own. Sorry for being nearly 2 hours late chaps , will try harder next time. Can't wait to see Nige's V-due especially with its BST's on. Will even try to get Jeff to bring a proper bike next time , even if I have to lend him one of mine. |

nowt wrong with the RC45 - just apologise to him as I forgot his name when I posted the pics, hence "Stu's mate" |

Oh Don't Worry about apologizing GeeKay to Vort, its his brother that was on the RC45. and Vort is only jealous (sibling rivalry), seeing as Vort bought a brand new Bimota now worth a fraction of the value of the RC that his brother bought, such is the devotion to Bimotaism
It was great to all meet up and I'll give you a bell next time I'm over your way and come and have a play in your garage |

Would you believe at the time he bought his RC , the dealers were desperate to sell them and giving large discounts ( 40% ). He had one dealer from down south who was going to transport a 95 and 96 model year up , so he could choice between them , and he would take one back. ( slightly different graphics was the only difference) .
As you say , paid the same for the SB as he paid for the RC. The SB is worth about 60% of what I paid for it , and the RC 50% more than what he paid for it !! But have you ridden an SB and a RC , money is not everything !! |
