Stop the thread!

Not only is that the shittiest-looking bike, they've coated it with dog diarrhea
Even bland can be a type of character :wave:

They probably did it in a hurry after somebody parked that outside. :D

How to *really* spoil a YammaGamma.
Did they run out of ideas where to put the bodywork so plonked it on top?

The forks are about 50mm too long for the frame, it's sitting high at the front, the lower frame rails should be parallel to the ground.
F2 engine isn't the best YPVS engine, the earlier ones are more powerful, why has it been converted to O ring head gasket, the standard gasket works fine, even on high compression engines.

It looks shit, has all the hall marks of a badly slung together mess and is hugely over priced.

The bike is lovely, it's the description that's a bit WTF.

Not only is this Panigale 'Not for the faint hearted' because it will lift the front at 140mph, but it manages the 0-60 sprint in 9.5 seconds. Only a second and a half slower than my diesel car.

Current bid price is £3.20, if I had room for it I'd bid a few hundred quid on it, it's ugly but interesting, like a lot of people in this forum.

Why on earth would anyone put a 50hp engine in a 125hp bike?
It's a very custom thing, so it's going to be expensive for insurance. It's not even a2 compliant.
Weird.

Also the original bike had the neck tied to the engine as a triangle, but there's a gaping hole under the neck on this Special.

And he thinks it's worth £5k :bblonde:

If ever there was an ebay ad description written by AI, then this has to be it...

Do you think he misheard when someone told him to fit blue spot callipers and just fitted blue spots to the callipers?
