    Street/Speed Triples, Ducati 848's and some Monsters.. RC51's and R1's (albeit with decals)?

    I think this thread needs to be renamed the "Brown Quilted Seats for Too Many $$$" thread

    So, ahh, why does one wish for a handbag on the side of their motorcycle?
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    Apparently it is the "Perfect summer bike".. Not a Desmosedici, not an MV Augusta, none of that.. An old CB400 with a silly bag :P

    No, no, : Custom made Italian saddlebag. I'd like to see him write down his definition of -Custom. But he'd probably hit me with his handbag and all his makeup would fall out.

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

    Great to park in front of the barber while you get your beard trimmed and oiled while vaping on some semen flavoured syrup.

    Here's an optimistic seller:
    https://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/use...50e8673c2e4e9f

    I know its not a bike but I happen to know a fair bit about these cars (hence my KB name) and it's not worth anyway near that kind of money.
    Yes they were rare
    Yes they are a great car

    BUT

    They are still a Pulsar, mostly only nutters like me are into them with the general boy racer enthusiasts going down the much more common routes.
    I bought mine with similar ks for around 14k many moons ago so to ask that kind of money now for a car that's not all that desirable is crazy.
    Worth 6k tops IF you can find a buyer. I actually saw one for $600 on Facebook the other day that had had a rough life and needed a tickle, should have grabbed it.
