Hello all
Been watching the forum for a few months now. Sadly its because some nasty person stole my MV F4 1000R Crying or Very sad
Anyway I had the please to look at a Bimota SB6R today with a view to it being my new steed.
I fell in love as soon as the cover come of the bike, but sadly I didn't buy it.
I just didn't feel right and I couldn't tell you why but something said walk away.
A small list of items that included a brand new rear tyre (190 section)
Worn front tyre
After market indicators
Modified side stand
Cracked LHS side fairing
Repaired top fair
Mileage was 18000kms, but it wasnt really very clean so I walked away

So what now, I really NEEEEED to buy a nice SB6R
Anyone know of one for sale or one that moght be for sale?
Please please let me know
Hope to hear from you all soon
Dave

Dave
With any Bim you are buying get the bodywork taken off as it is a close fit and can hide more serious damage underneath. Any decent Bim owner will oblige. Save you a load of pain after you buy it!Have you tried a YB11, they are well specced and are still great value.

No I haven't looked at the YB11, I really like the looks of the SB6R, So that's what I am trying to find at the moment...
