Re: Get the kleenex ready...
That is a lovely looking machine, but ?80k is just silly, it is for collectors or men with penis envy. And it is far too shiny to ever be used properly.
Anecdotally when I was out last week on the HP4 a chap asked me if it was the new carbon frame one, 'cos of the frame covers, lol. I could have made a few quid eh?
177kgs wet it may be but it reminds me of one of my first trips to a BMW dealer a few years back. There was a fat bloke in the dealership ordering every carbon part possible for his new s1000rr. He told me it was to make the bike as light as possible for trackdays. Look in the mirror pal, the best way to lose weight on track is to eat less pies, instead he spent thousands on parts to save a couple of kgs.
