Hey Guys,

I have offers for a HB2 and SB5, the SB5 being around 3000 EUR cheaper. as i know those bikes are pretty similar apart from the engine... which one should i go for?

The SB5 is up for 9000, the HB2 for 12000 EURO

Don’t know much about older models, but would suggest depends if it’s to ride or display. Does one need more work to bring up to spec compared to the other. Good luck with choice.
