Hi, I’m looking to purchase a YB6 or YB6 Tuatara.
Please contact me if you have one for sale.
Thanks,

Morning, not selling my one but I do know of a Tuatara that is going for sale.
It’s going for circa £8500 I think but would need to double check.
Pm if interested. _________________ Bimota YB6 Other toys are a Suzuki RG500 Gamma, GSX-R1100WT, RD350 ypvs N2 and a holigan KTM 640 Duke 2 |

Even in the rare world of Bimota, a Tuatara is a rare thing. But if it's for riding, an Exup with carbs over a Genesis with period FI every time. _________________ What, Jonny's gone! |

I have a Tuatara but not selling I'm afraid. They do come up for sale from time to time and there was one on Car and Classic last year. I believe it was sold back to Italy. Mine is a German import. Bought it about 3 years ago. Was hoping to actually get it on the road this year but....
If you are on Facebook there is a Brit in Japan called Drew Jonsen who exports bikes to the UK etc. I know he has a Tuatara he was tarting up to sell but the body work was damaged where its been badly strapped down and cracked fibreglass. You might want to look him up. I've used him for parts in the past without issue but some of his posting on Facebook make you question his sanity.....
Good luck |

Careful in dealing with certain individuals in Japan, I know some people have had some real horror stories. _________________ Bimota DB1, Bimota YB5, Bimota YB6 Exup, Bimota YB9 SR, Ducati NCR Replica, Moto Guzzi 750 S3, Honda CR750 race replica, Seeley-Suzuki TR500 |

Yes, do your research about the dealers if you want to get a bike from Japan. Read the reviews and comments, and listen to them. |

I wouldn't touch him with a shitty bargepole///////….He's let a lot of people down and cost them small fortunes to get bikes back off him....He;s madder than a Box of frogs....Just IMHO..... |
