    Limited to as many units they thought they could sell.

    That's interesting 'cause when I asked for a price for mine as a trade it was just a 2009 Speed Triple. No allowance for the extra money it cost as a special edition when new. (Not that I paid that anyway but...)

    and if you did trade it guaranteed the dealer would have marketed it as 'limited'.

    Mate I'm sure you are one of the honest ones.

    The last dealer I traded with was a Honda dealer in Manakau City. I made an offer on a bike (Honda RS125), he came back with 'the seller wants $500 more' which I agreed to. I found out later from the seller (who is a current KB member) the dealer told him he had to cut his asking price by $500 which he agreed to. Instant extra $1000 for telling a couple of fibs.

    Think it was a special colour as well. Load of shit.

    They ran a Steve McQueen special a few years back - same bullshit - bit of colour here and there and a badge.

    Harley are the worst - starting to do stupid 115 anniversary editions now. That's not even a thing. Marketing twats.

    Why would you use photos taken by MotoMart? Unless he's owner of motomart?

    Steve McQueen

    He could time travel and jump WW2 fences on a post war bike....that's impressive.

    DeMyer's Laws - an argument that consists primarily of rambling quotes isn't worth bothering with.
