Face palms are meant for when people have been silly or stupid - your actions turning down a works bike for that money deserve many, but I could only give you one If you need any others explaining point me in their direction
thks Exige and i thought you were just being a tosser,,i just didn't know at the time what the guy was talking about and thought it was very expensive as i just purchase my 916 for pennies,this was being sold by a suzuki mechanic that works for Heron Suzuki/sets up the TT bikes so yes the real deal and with my lack of knowledge i've missed outcan we change the palm face to a frying pan
You should have had a face palm there but I am letting you off this once: you didn't say what the bike was
It was a works 500cc suzuki but i do not know the history/rider/year/circuit or TT bike,, so very difficult to price up i guess but the mechanic's name was Martain from up north,i will look into this at a later date
I got offered an ex works 500 some years ago when my mate worked for the Foggy Petronas team for 8k. All sounded a bit too good to be true. Apparently the bikes were supposed to have been scrapped at the end of the season but didn’t make it to the crusher. https://www.motorcyclenews.com/sport/motogp/2006/august/stolen-gp-bikes-found/
I think only two were runners, the others had empty cases. All were for private display only however someone bought one and contacted Suzuki to find out the bikes history ......
