Hi guys, this was a pretty well known bike (ex Blair Titmus), I'm still in the UK and no immediate plans for return so unfortunately will be better off in someone else's garage.

Had to pull off sale before I left as started blowing a bit of smoke from crank-case breather (not a huge amount but didn't want to leave with a buyer like that), didn't have time to get fixed or check out what was up but will likely need new rings and checkover. Had then intended to keep for my return and planned to have fixed by people in the know with personal experience with this bike but due to a couple of tragedies that unfortunately is no longer an option.

Below is a link to the YouTube clip - comes exactly as described in vid with all the bling and go/handle fast bits still on, rego lapsed so will need re-vinning too, shouldn't be an issue and have the paperwork.

Bike at my old man's in Tauranga, I was back a year ago and flat battery aside it started up no problem. Please only serious enquiries, if you are interested drop me a PM - price by neg but will be realistic. Be great to know she's being used.
Cheers!

Personally ridden this bike not only is it an exquisite piece of engineering, it's the most exciting thing on two wheels in NZ. Amazingly rideable but able to smoke the rear tyre in fourth gear off the throttle alone.

Determined to own another large capacity turbo bike at some stage. Have my eye on a cheap GS1200SS as a starting base.

One mean looking bike packing the goods.

Makes me wonder if there is some max HP limit where a bike is no longer road legal?

Then I suspect, as much as I'd love to take it for a spin... Its just as well I didnt win Lotto as maybe a bit much wood for me ;-)
