Anyone have a spare ?30k?

[JimmyMac]

Found this on eBay, think it is a little overpriced, thoughts?

I actually ordered one of these and put a deposit down, cancelled it when the dealer told me the bike was wrapped and not painted.

Wish 'd gone for one of them instead of the standard colour scheme!

Hugely overpriced and in my opinion there is nothing special about it. As soon as the race season is over the colour scheme will be dated as they change each year. If I was going to spend ?30k on a bike from a dealership I would want something with more than just bolt on accessories which were all readily available from the parts brochure. For perspective you could build a competitive SSTK race bike for ?7k less!

Want to spend 30k? My country manager just accidentally bought a Honda Fireblade SP2 '17 (1 of 35).
He put down ?200 deposit 5 months ago and promptly forgot. Dealer called this week to say it had arrived!
He bought an SSTK ZX-10R in the interim for trackdays and has decided to flip the SP2 rather than rag it around.

Don't need to comment you've summed it up very well!
The extra difference for this Tyco wrap would support running the bike and lots of tyres + super unleaded for a long time

Racepaint will do a Tyco rep for ?1200 + vat

Exactly Budgie, when I saw yours at the TT I was really glad I hadn't followed my order through, nice as the dealers one was, it was way too much money for a plastic wrap. In paint yours is really special.
