Well the V11 Rosso Mandello is in a local dealers at $10,995 NZ, The Ballabio is a private sale other side of the Cook Strait from me in Picton, on auction for $9,000 NZ. The Rosso I think could be tidier scratch on the tail, stems of one of the mirrors furred, alloy of the clip ons furred, but has after market air filters and Exhaust. Ballabio, other than pics on local auction site unseen, higher Km's but with luggage and pack rack. I reckon the RM could/should be tidier considering Km's done.

Well this morning I had a test ride on V11 Rosso Mandello, lovely bike, and as the Centre of Gravity is lower feels lighter than my current bike (955i Tiger), and certainly more enjoyable, and made a good noise. Question is I have the choice of that V11 RM or a short distance away a Ballabio. Now is there much difference between the two other than the Handlebars? Rosso Mandello is a Jap import with about 11K km's and a 2001 (unlimited edition version) the Ballabio is 2003 with 26k KM's NZ new. Comments and thoughts would be appreciated Cheers Andy
