Why are they so un-loved?

I wish i knew, ive had mine for 7 years and have no intention of selling as i still enjoy riding it too much. Over here its still a rare-ish bike and i like that as well as it is something special(in my clouded judgement of course).

Are you selling your SB8R? Whats the mileage and how much would you like for it? I am looking for a SB7 but think a SB8 would look good in the garage next to the YB11.

Cheers

Duncan

Bike magazine here in the UK ran a test of "exotic" bikes in their December issue where they said unkind things about the YB11. Personally, if it wasn't for other projects having first dibs on my cash, I would have been on the phone to the seller soon as I saw the ad.
