Saw this in Manningtree. Presume it's a kit/tank combo of some sort for the Thruxton 900

Looked like speed humps could be tricky with the exhausts so low underneath

I'm guessing that the owner's gone for some kind of 60's cafe racer style,fairing/tank/seat & enclosed rear shocks.I've no idea how much that cost but to my eyes it looks 'visually challenging' :wtf:

I'm guessing it's supposed to be a Dresda look-a-like.

I rather like the way the mirrors are used as the lock stop :wtf:

After a 12year rebuild, Russ Collins Jr fired up Sorcerer today. Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe isn't far behind. (for those of you who remember RC's bikes)

Pretty sure that beemer has scored a whole thread in the past.

If you told me it's the new factory R1250R or whatever I'd probably believe you.

Another boxer...

I'm still undecided on this one, which is good because I don't have £40k to buy it!

My limit was $6,000. It's currently at $5,555 with 4 hours to go.
$5,555 + 5% auctions fees = $5832
Plus there would be another $750 to get it here

and 10% sales tax to Calizuela, so I'm out.
I'm thinking it might hit $7k before it ends.
