Re: just out the crate
WANT. Think an SRAD will be my next bike but probably not one at that price! Would love to bid if I had the money though.
Also, I never realised that the 750 SRAD had the same yoke and clock layout as a curvy. |

Re: just out the crate
There have been a few of these come up on Ebay recently. Why would someone keep a bike in a crate for 10+ years then think they can sell it for the same price??
It may have 0 miles on it but it's still an 11 year old bike.

Re: just out the crate
I also think its criminal that they are encouraging someone to not use it and buy it as an investment.
Bikes should be ridden not stared at.

Re: just out the crate
I remember reading a magazine article about Padgetts Suzuki, they also had bikes still in crates, never un boxed.
Some bikes don't sell, so stay crated up, although doesn't apply to this one
