  1. Did the 1098R currently for sale at Snells of Alton previously belong to a member of this forum ? Got permutations for next year running around my head and I'd be interested in a bit of personal history of the bike. Thanks, Andy

  2. That one is a sexy looking bike, must admit I was considering it when I bought my Panigale.

  3. Traditionally the R models reach half their new cost before climbing again (rough guide only) - wonder when / if these are going to get there - seems they are bottoming out rather high! A low mileage one owner example did sell on Ebay a few months ago on auction around £13k so that one was nearly there. :Wideyed:

  6. Saw that one when i got my bike in March, think it was done for AMA racing in the USA but never happened, was it up for 27k with black Desmo forks.
