    Ouch $24 large. Plus it will not even have a stock styled exhaust, weird on a restoration - what are you paying for.

    MK2, collectible? F-ed if I know I am always wrong on these things - heck I should have purchased that Sport Classic Ducati that sat in the local dealers getting discounted lower and lower years back. Blood things are fetching good money now!

    Always hard to know. A crystal ball would be fucking handy. If I'd known RG500's would fetch over 20k now, I'd have borrowed 50k when they were 5k and gone bananas.

    It'll be interesting to see if any "signed" bikes make more money at auctions.
    Hmmm.could get Hugh Anderson to sign this ( I'll put his book on the tank so its less obvious)

    Make up an interesting history and sell on Ebay Japan

    And I wouldn't consider a MKII worth anything like that no matter if the fucking Pope built it, and personally signed the tank with his own man goo.
    The `Fucking Pope`? I didn't go to a Katolic school. Is that a different one from the regular dude with the tall hat?
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    .....The insurance company got rid it off for me. It was written off. The damage on fairing, exhaust covers "miss placed"... it's because when I high sided all those bits broke off!
