Nice (apart from estimate).
Note the 'spare' factory carbon exhausts and I presume alloy fuel tank (see photo alloy plate and alloy filler cap)
Very clean, will be interesting to see what it makes. _________________ Not as many bikes as I would like and already too many to keep up with! |

I like them all, including the Supermono racer. But my favourite would the Magni Australia. _________________ Dreaming of a Tesi in the garage. |

Magni Australia is gorgeous. I would love to have it. Mantra DB3 on the other hand is the epitome of ugliness. I still cannot figure out how did Bimota came out with such monstrosity. _________________ 2016 Suzuki GSXR750 TRACK BIKE

The DB3 is indeed a proper munter. However, owners seem to love them - it's a profound perversion _________________ What, Jonny's gone! |

I don't think anyone would steel it. I think you can leave this bike in the worst neighborhood and it will be untouched _________________ 2016 Suzuki GSXR750 TRACK BIKE

The DB2 sold for US$ 17,250 (£12,164) inc. premium
very spendy!
SB3 went for $16250 (£11460) and the YB8 didn't sell
Some collection standard Brit iron went at reasonable prices but NOT the Vincents!

Tidy price for the DB2....and where the "value" should be IMHO...but then I am Biased.....Tesi 1D went cheap...as did SB8......Mantra for half the price of the DB2.... |

The SB8R was cheap at US$6,900. Also there was a Z1 at $4,300 which seems like a bargain. |

The sb8r was missing the carbon fiber ram tube pieces running between the fairing and gas tank. Good luck ever finding those - might have been part of the reason for the low bids _________________ Jack
