Having owned an original TL1000S and worked on a naked raptor the engine as you'll know is a full fat version, lovely bikes, although the "Cagiva" spares can be a bit "hit or miss" but the Matt will already know that, £5k seems a bit steep, is that for an 05 bike ?

Oh and in answer, let me just say you can't have to many bikes

Cheers Mark.

It's that kind of attitude that means we're going to have to put a bike in the kitchen again...

Bloody bought another NC35 today.

Anyone want to buy an NC35?

hmmm my kitchen is far too small....can't even get a pushbike in it.....and they don't live in there anyway.....its a constant discussion in my house, where bikes should live!

could get it in the front room if I took out the windows and put ramps in and out, or alternatively stripped it and rebuilt it...lol

That's the one that looks completely ****ing stupid isn't it. No, don't buy that. It looks completely ****ing stupid. Proper naked raptor's a lovely bike though.
