All those words and he didn't mention a price. Another thing he forgot to mention is the fact that the swingarm was swapped out for an '06 model. Seems silly to throw that much money (modding) at a bike and not even touch the three things it needed most: crap wheels, crap suspension and crap brakes.

And the sugar fountain fairy swore so hard when she came to super-size that stale hope soybean; liiiike a homeless German woman. Who is this super-sizing spirit-crushing femme? And tell her I'll break a tree root up in her shrimp.
Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw that—it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.

This is about the fourth or fifth time he's had the ad up. In past ads he was asking about $15K. I always got a laugh over that and kept thinking about how Ben's bike was better. The only thing that really sets this bike off is that it is the Paul Smart edition. Maybe I should call him up & offer to sell him my old front forks and brakes off the 848.

That's just it, his isn't a PS. It's an '07 with an '06 swingarm conversion. The PSs all had asymmetric swingarm AND a dry clutch.

Keep telling you guys, that RSV4 motor will make you need to change your pants, in a good way.
That thing would be a holy terror up Tantalus.

Would the Ape be smoother on power than FP's SF ?

Smoother? Yes, and in a much more linear fashion as well. Not sure of the tune they put in the Tuono, but the SBK model packs a good bit more horsepower as well. Wind that bad boy up over 7500 rpms and HOLY SHIT!!

I guess it didn't sell. True to fashion though, they mislist it. http://honolulu.craigslist.org/oah/mcd/4417278907.html

Base model with some slight mods. And some of those mods that need to go away, IMO.
