Its like the love child of the Silver Dream Racer and an RG250 MK3 in the looks department.

If I win the Euro millions tonight I will have it, after first ordering a Tesi.

Never thought I'd say that but look at this....

Not in EU but as its over 30 years old there's no VAT to pay!
£15k as it is ...worth a haggle over?

And another one at MiIM, though I don't think he actually has it it stock yet.

Certainly seem to be creeping up in price...MIIMC also have a Ducati 750F1 for sale some £7k cheaper...and that's the forst time I've seen that dealer value a DB1 higher than a 750F1...maybe theyre starting to attain a true value in the marketplace???.......That Db1 seems clean...but closer inspection shows its a bit ratty and highish mileage for such a price.....

I also note that the description references "first fully enclosed motorcycle...."...In the 80's maybe...and for Bimota a first yeh...but other manufacturers were doing it some 30-40 years earlier......

Vincent BLack Night....Arial Leader...Aermacchi Chimera...etc etc
