Here's the description https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/134680771626 ... R6qMmPO5Yg

I'm not sure what time zone the owner lives in but amongst other things it had a new battery xmas 2024 & serviced in July 2024 :wtf:

Looks like an OK pretend off-road bike.

But the silencers, viewed from the rear, did make me “WFT!”

It's not the worst bike ever, but you have to wonder about the type of person who thought "You know what my KLE500 needs... a single sided swinging arm"

Just as interesting is the listing only has a single line of text as its description - you usually get a short story with this sort of thing.

That plaque on the handlebars says that it's a limited edition of 100. Did they really find another 99 buyers :shock:

Probably - all waiting for this collector's item to appreciate.

Personally, the only folk I can see rushing to collect this are the bin men.

I am haunted by the thought of it going over a bump and crushing the pillions genitals between the two seats.

On looking again that pillion pad subframe is held on by 3 6mm bolts, surely not enough to support an unsprung human for long before the bolts fail. There are also no pillion pegs but there is a seat. How did this lash up ever get through whatever regulations cover new vehicles?

It's not a pillion seat, it's for the rider to shift back onto when going really fast, chin on the tank.

And trap his plums under the front seat when he hits a bump ;)

Bears all the signs of being designed by a committee. I can see nothing positive about it. It's fucking hideous.

It was a real limited edition that sold out very quickly. And for about 20k a pop.
It’s hideous

£18,000 new from CCM.

Doesn't appear to have been a good short term investment.

Just sticking this here, not because it's a terrible bike, I just want to see how cheap it goes...

(at 3.5 hours to go it was at £1650)

Well it ended, with no reserve, at £1,650.

Someone got a cheap Superduke (if it's not totally fucked).
