    Why? It's on exemption.
    If it wasn't for a concise set of rules, we might have to resort to common sense!

    Its on my watchlist, too.

    $7k is a lot. I'm pretty sure there was a MINT NC35 at that price on turdme last year.

    Having said that. if you want a mint one, just to have a mint one, AND its as good as it looks. then thats the one to have.

    Granted its 20 years old. but still a fine handling motorbike: and if you own an Ohlins shock. and set of forks with emulators. new seals and springs and Ohlins oil. they handle OK too.

    They're not a cult bike. and current/future classic for no reason. whereas CBR600's and R6's are just Kleenex: use them, wad them up. throw away.

    if you pay $7k for that now. in ten years it will still be worht $7k, maybe more.

    Meh.... I dunno. I doubt I'd get $7k for my RC46, and it's got Ohlins/Racetech front suspension, Elka rear shock, newish Michelin tyres, a Power Commander, EvoStar shifter kit, dual Fiamm horns, heated grips, Staintune highmount muffler, and a whole bunch of other shit. Oh - and it probably handles nearly as well, and goes a lot fasterer.
    ... and that's what I think.

    Or summat.


    Or maybe not...

    Dunno really....

    I used to think heated grips were for nannas. Till I got a bike with them. Having used them I think they're the business.

    It's a price I'd normally associate with an NC35. He might not actually want to get rid of it, might be just a ploy to make the little woman think it's for sale.
