    Hydraulic is spelt even better in the SB2 auction scary they've been fiddling with the bikes

    See someone's employing scare tactic bidding ($5k jump) start making it a stupid money auction

    I was picking it'd go for between 15-20K NZD

    No that's quite true and quite possibly it will go for more

    I'd still rather have the MHR though

    There was a blue 900SS for sale at the last VCC swap meet in ChCh - asking 15 I believe. Don't know if it sold.

    Same vendor also had a '38/'39 Rudge for which he was asking a bloody fortune...

    a MHR Mille is the creame of the crop when it comes to bevels

    Yeah but all that Ducati Bevel stuff is going that way

    Just had a look in Oz and there's two 900SS for sale, a 76 and a 82 both asking over 30K for them

    Its not really a Ducati any more but a vast improvement on their creaking and clanking collection of italian steampunkery. Its a wonder they go at all, those motors, what with the whirring and clanking and grinding. I heard that they don't even have proper valve springs.....

    Anyway: Vincati:

    now THAT's a motor.

    While we are all dreaming of SS ownership....the one I'd like is a 750s, ( not an SS) proper spoked wheels and valve springs
    Any ways us KB's are more about typing...er riding than collecting right ...?

    Blimey. I've always thought she wasn't that attractive. But blimey.
