Why would you do that to a limited edition!!!

Seriously, the paint is part of the limited appeal!

Yeah the bike looks wicked, but it's a limited edition because of the paint scheme it comes out of the factory with! all you've done is de-valued it big time!!! Why????

We already have a K4 rizla Rep ,, and he wanted a K7 .. but dont like the exhaust --soooooooooooooooooo he had planned on buying the standard black one and getting new exhaust and respray.. but the exhaust was another 1400 (Yoshi's). But the Garaga had 3 TT Centenary ones allocated --and they come with the Yoshi system. So thats what he done - Its o5 BSB livery but Dream machine have retained the TT decals too (The yoke is engraved with TT Ltd Edition No 64/150)
He has had the waveys seats hosees etc etc done as well

Maybe but it's still not a limited edition anymore technically & it's lost it's limited edition resale value as well, by the way those exhausts can be picked up from the states at a fraction of the price, even with the shipping & tax etc.

It maybe has its fors and against -- the bike is still ltd edition tt (different colour albiet) its also unique --as its the only one in wolrd .. As for resale he has kept his old gixxer for wet days and at 51 this will be his last bike and resale value is not a prob --its the bike he wanted at a price he wanted to pay --sadly its been busted for last 2 days !!! AA been twice --coming again tomorrow and it being shipped back to the dealer to sort .


ooops the angry face has gone in the wrong bit of this
