It is overpriced really, but as with everything it's what people are willing to pay. I paid two thirds of that price for mine and it's original. The one for sale on ebay is missing front and rear indicators, the exhaust isn't standard and the engine casings are black. The exhaust and front indicators would be tricky to source. The exhaust is bespoke but the indicators are from the front of a US spec VW golf front side.
The other YB7 that I know of is now in bits on a pallet next to my VFR as a woman pulled out of Sainsbury's and wrote it off.

The frames got a 600 engine in it, the other engine is a 400cc but I'm unsure where he got it from. Carbs are standard 600cc 3HE i think.
The frames had it, it is an insurance write off. I know there was a YB7 frame for sale on yahoo japan but it is not listed anymore. I've basically got all the rear end, ohlins shock, two engines, all the extra bits like foot rests and exhaust hangers etc as spares. I got them for a steal so threw him an extra £50 on his asking price. I also found a brand new airbox in japan for his other Bimota so I bought it (Bimota BB1), posted it to him anonymously :) (he figured out who'd sent it)

Never say never. Pending knee operation (think this in op #5) and wether or not I am going to the ACE in July will determine my attendance. If I am going, I will be in touch with Paul and your good self. Big bike will be on the road by then, but not decided if taking the big bike or the little one (if going)nige.smith wrote:That's why I'm in. Gareth coming?

nice one pal.
look forward to your call then
if little bike, then welcome to chuck it in the tranny with mine and get a lift over to the circuit with the others following on larger cc bikes.

Cheers Paul. Just a few things to finalise about the Ace Cafe run. It's looking more and more unlikely to happen, what with my knee op and a friends shoulder op so we'll probably put it off until next year.
Need to speak to Rhory and see what him and the others plans are. Where have you moved to now? North Wales is it?
