  2. That is beautiful. I wonder how easy it would be to make it road legal.

  3. Put this on the road? Are you serious?:eek: My first question would be "How much would it cost to make a glass cabinet for it?" Like it says on the advert THIS IS BIKE PORN.

  5. You'll need to add a rad fan. As they are for track use, they come without one.

    Also would need to apply for V5.

    Go for it Dave, you know it makes sense!

    Hey Imola, leave the 848 guy's outta this,

  7. I'd always have a race bike with history over a Desmo road bike, glass cabinet or stuck in the corner of the front room... Maybe the odd trackday thrown in

  8. You could buy a 888 frame with V5 and fit all the goodies.

  12. It might have all the racing history in the world but it still looks like a brick to me :frown:

  16. As an 848 guy....you know one with a decent size penis so doesn't need to have all the power like the small penis types...a desmo for that money. As much as the old shape has grown on me (Jasper's kinda kicked the liking off) I think bikes are for riding not wanking over so desmo, desmo, desmo :)

  19. As a pure investment, that's a better buy than a Desmo, but only if you keep it like that & don't use it.

  20. I would only trade my Desmo for one other bike - and it wouldn't be that one.

    I would take a real McCoy Casey's 800 v4 screamer 2007/8 era missile. Why won't they build one of those FFS?! I know the factory sold them off to a few people, but they were bloody expensive.... if you have to ask etc......

    Life moves on. That's a lovely bit of history, but that's what it is - history now..... glass cabinet time.
