Is that not a bit pricey at £11300 in proper money. Don't know how I missed that. Some good stuff on Donedeal, but will pass on that. _________________ Dreaming of a Tesi in the garage. |

The last few DB6 ads shown here have all been around this money and I was surprised. I want one, but not for that money. I suppose though, if I had it I probably would!
I don't know this bike, and Ireland is only like a county, but with such low mileage it doesn't get out much does it?
Again, I am sure cash talks. |

Very "scant" details on the bike...doesnt even say what year it is......After 2008 due to koso clocks it looks like...but It appears that its just a straight direct import and sell on for a profit.....Advert says "leather seat etc...factory standard.."...Indeed looks like a standard seat...but it sure isnt leather...so I imagine the owner is a dealer and has never even sat on the bike..mirrors missing...and "non standard" carbon squishy zard end cans...looks like it still has the factory fitted tyres not changed since it left the factory...a bit too "super slick" for this side of Europe... |

I looked at a db6 (USA) a couple weeks ago. CF squishy Zard exhaust, cf belt covers, front fairing, replace Koso clock with aftermarket cluster that actually works (!). Asking $12,900 us. Bike was clean enough to eat off it, very fussy owner.
Good price? _________________ Jack

doesnt seem a bad price conidering its in the US.....bikes had to travel a fair way and have import tax paid on it...in Italy you can pick them up from 6,000 euros to 15,000 euros...prices vary greatly....is it a 1,000cc or 1100? Dry clutch or wet clutch? zard squishies are nice and a $1,000 EXTRA just for the cans...dont think that they come with extractable baffles though if noise is an issue where you are for registering/running...as in they come plain open and not baffleable....Arrow titanium cans are round and come with removable/replaceable baffles....
Early 1,000cc models had pegaso ECU's that are no longer available...so much so that Bimota now offer an ECU change to Walbro with clocks...but evidently they charge for this....the pegaso units had hiccups at 5-6thou...later 1100 units with Koso clocks not an issue....all depends on mileage, age and condition....have seen cheaper and dearer....
Would recommend sitting on one though...riding position is fine....but that riders seat is narrow...not an issue....but it is very very short....the more rotund derriere's need not apply...as you may get stuck in the seat.....take a look.....tank right in front and high...and pillion perch right behind and high...... |
