If its a replacement for the Panigale R/ WSBK then it'll be capped at about £32K rough price. WSBK now has a cost cap of I believe €40K or thereabouts. Anyway we'll find out on Monday.
All the dealer principles were at a meeting today and was told they will find out what this bike is. Some dealers believe it's related to WSB. Maybe a V4. Certainly find out tomorrow, but just in case I put my name down for one. Which is funny becasue I still don't have a date for the Anniversario.
I was told that the Panigale will continue to be made during 2017 in small numbers and these bikes will continue to have the under slung exhausts. Euro 4 alternative exhausts will be introduced in 2018, if the Panigale continues!! Doesn't address your query but it jogged my memory of the conversation I had yesterday. I guess from what I've been told we should find out at some point today, which one dealer eluded to yesterday when I spoke to them.
Sounds familiar tbh, when the D16RR's were announced back in 04 the price went up after Feb 06 to £42K. How many this time, 500 units?
Indeed, 500 worldwide same as before #36Hollywoodstig, 1 minute ago I wonder if the values of MK1's just went up?
Anyone wanna buy my reservation with a £10k uplift. lol I'm a bit disappointed if I'm honest. @Hollywoodstig thanks for the info. and again. lol
Ooh. Another bike most can't afford. Wonder what tech they can put on it, bearing in mind the R is a poor mans SL now anyway...
Not sure it's an investment opportunity. Wasn't the MK1 £54K new in 2013 and you can buy a 2014 model with less than 2,000 miles on it for £44K. These dealers in Sheffield aren't known for being cheap either. Too rich for me anyway....
You only need to look at 900SL versions and these values. Also look at what D16RR's are sat at too. I do understand your point though.
