Dragons den huh! They would rip the business apart!
That said I made an offer (last year)! Just need the £!!m / €!!m to get there. You are on the right track though.
Hope all is well where you may be?

Hey c'mon you can see UKBim's in a "position" here and I'm sure if the playing field was level he'd be the first to help, but it's not.
If you have a problem with your SB6R then just shout in the SB forum or on OldskoolSuzuki under the watercooled section. There isn't much that's really difficult with the bike as long as you have some mechanical knowledge. The basics are simple - change the oil, clean the carbs and it likes to eat sparkplugs. The biggest problem with Bimota's is the lack of use. |
i "thought" it was a simple question, he stated he had service agents i was intrigued to know where they are located and who..........
i was genuinely interested but if i'd realised i needed to be a member of the shaky boot club or whatever then sorry for the inconvenience
for the record i have no issue with my bike(s) and am quite capable of sorting personally |

Mr Stockcar, showing support for UKBimota does not and was not meant to infer that your comment had no validity. All cool. However, love to know what a shakey boot club is? We had "shakey boats" ( SBS ) in the Marines but cant recall a shakey boot apart from in the desert or jungle to get rid of the scorpions!

I thought that the service agents are Ducati dealers for Ducati engined Bimotas.

Be careful, I said £ !! m that was NOT eleven million! besides if you buy something you buy it for what you can do with it. That may seem daft to many but its another way of looking at a deal.
No NO IT WAS NOT ELEVEN MILLION just to be clear !! is NOT 11

My SB10 is a guess that they would build a 600 cc version after 1000 cc SB9? now we would be talking! Or is that spending?
