I see ebay has a new contender. FI bike converted to carbs. Electronic dash. 50 miles on clock so not run in yet. Registered on a W plate. Will make a nice bike for the right owner, preferably one with a big wallet. No doubt someone will know if its had the usual mods done to crank cases, oil route passages etc. I know I sound a bit boring / cautious but if I were buying another Vdue and knowing what I do about them I think I would be happier with a bike with 500 miles on the clock rather than no miles or 50 miles. Just so all the issues and gremlins are resolved ready for my pleasure. Just me though. Either way, its a fantastic bike.

There is that to be said about most NEW OLD STOCK , 50 miles means not used and needs a complete check/overhaul and most things will fail in the next 200 miles.
But then most buyers of certain types of bikes will never actually ride them or start them. They will sit in a lounge , dry of fluids and slowly seize up Shocked .
Machinery may be beautiful , expensive, rare etc , but its prime function is to be used , and without that it might as well be a cardboard cutout !! Shocked
