Cool bike to find in a small little bike shop! Altho they woudnt let me sit on it....still working on that. The bike shop owner is well tempted to take it out for a ride on the trade insurance...but my god, if he binned it :smt095

Very nice! But yeah, be terrified of even looking at it in case your eyes somehow caused the paint to fade or something.

Is it for sale?

I so want to make one of those into a ratty sidecar outfit like some ural or dnepr POS and take it to a ducatisti meet...

If he's gonna take it out, better remind him to change the slick tyres ;)

Think if someone is interested they might sell it. Anyone got a spare 38 grand?

It belongs to a mate of his, think he thinks its better off bein on show in a bike shop than shut in storeage. Fair play to the man...means that people like me who would otherwise neer get near one, can :smt118 over it all day

The tiny little backstreet garge that we take our vehicles to have one of them. Its the last place you'd expect to find it as well.

I havent seen it on the road, but I know that it does get ridden and I think thats right, these things are made to be used not stored away and never ridden. If I had spent that much money on a bike I'd want to ride it and get my monies worth out of it.

:cool:

Agreed

There is a dude around here that owns one (not this one) he takes it out on the track. Mind you, i heard last time he would get it out the van cus it was raining. Which i think is fair

At donny this year, we were camped in the second paddock, next to the bike park...we were helping the bird next to us move her bike around and there was a Desmo parked a couple bikes down. Not sure i'd be brave enough to do that- leave it in a public bike park outside, on gravel for 3 days!

I saw one out on the road in Surrey the other day. Don't even want to think about how much the insurance costs!! :lol:
