|
|
I see that bb1 special has raised it's ugly head again on eBay uk. Looks like the dealership who now own it have done a half ok attempt to cafe racer it. I don't think alloy frames suit cafe racer option but it's better then it was that's for sure. Pity it's sb6 or yb territory for the price but who knows? Special builds seem to be gaining respect these days rather then halving the value. _________________ Pomps

...hmm not my thing...i am not against changing small optics of bimota's.
But this doesn't make sense to me...and an awfull lot of money.
If you make expensive change's to a bimota you must know that the money you've just spent is very hard to get back when selling the bike. |

Seems to be a good lesson on how how to throw good money after bad.
Shame really, as probably could have been turned into something quite special. Think a removal of the power plant and fiiting somthing with a bit better manners , getting the body work back to something along the original would have been the best route. |
