 |

Whilst dabbling with eBay, I saw a listing for the book "Bimota 25 years of excellence" £350. Looked on Amazon and they are nearly double that WTF? Surely that's not the going rate for a book which was £35 new ??

| Having done a bit more research, including this forum, it would seem it is. I was going to give my copy away with the V-Due, but not now. |

Keep up Steve...
Yep, they are worth a fortune Especially if it's the English version like yours.
Mine was only £25 new, a fortune back then.
Think you'll be lucky to get £350 but I.ve seen them change hands for over £200

You can still 'buy' them new online from waterstones for 35 quid - I ordered mine about 3 months back - still no delivery!!
