Why haven't you then? If it's such a bargain?
Old Slabbies just not that popular these days

Because it's old andtired. They were great bikes (owned 2 myself) but can not in any way cut it with bikes that we are used to now. The market for this bike is very limited, no good for a new rider, not much appeal for an experienced rider. Someone like myself would be a good punter for it, ie someone who has little intention of using it regulary but more like to keep it in the garage as a momento of a by-gone era. I'd love to have in my shed, a 1985 Gixxer, a 1988 (RR model anyone?), a 1991, 1995, 2000 and 2005, all 750's.

Cromwell's a long way to go for most folk, to check it out. And at that age it could be well tired despite his claims.
