Saw a guy this past weekend on the identical bike (except gold frame/wheels) in Torrance.  What an awesome looking and sounding piece of kit. 

I was gonna OBO $2700 but I guess I'd be low balling! [cheeky]

I've always liked the fairings on that model the best. Too bad I can't touch the floor on any of the sport bikes. Let's ignore the fact that I can barely touch the floor on my monster.  :P

Good one........... [clap]

Its the "race stand" that came with it..

I think the FG Stands or Pitbull stands are easier to use

nobody ever said you had to be able to touch both feet down at the same time.

I know, but I like to. It's also nice if I don't have to shift my butt half way off the seat or lean the bike more than 5deg to touch the floor. Makes sloped stops much easier.

nice bike.  looks very good.

if he comes down about 7k from the 13k then i'll pay for shipping but otherwise, that bike is sure to make someone happy.  good luck.

So is 13k too high a starting point for an SPS ??

I thought it was in the 'fair price' neighborhood....

and NO sarcasm meant, serious question..

I shot a message to infoage. He has one and probably has a fairly good idea regarding current value...

Thanks for the info and pricing guideline. I was offered 8k for her and thought it was low..

Infoage's R is sweet... saw it at Luca's Motogp BBQ last year and fell in love with it...alas I could not find one [bang]
