Interesting bike...I thought those RCV paint job blades were all based on standard bikes, but that looks like an SP. Any ideas Lozzy ?
Lozzlove tha I liked it when it came out on 213 that will be snappe straight up if u want it u will have to move quick
Don't want to pay that price Graeme. My plan is to pick a mint one up when I see it second hand in a year or so. Might pop up & have a look at in the flesh...the paintwork looks stunning in the pics
They come up for sale now and then as a std bike, not SP. I'm sure Vertu or Dobles had them as well. It's just a Dream Machine or similar paintjob. But I do like the colour scheme !
I just really fancy an SP tho before I slide into old age & scooter & that colour scheme has really grabbed me
Apart from the different bodywork, is there any tech gurus out there who could give a brief explanation on any difference from last years bike? not just the paint job lol.
