@fastaussie, I do not know if you are still looking for a "Champagne" V11, but I found one on Facebook Marketplace that looks like new!

It is a 2002 millesime, 18k miles, 7500 USD or best offer. Personally, the 7500 USD are justified when you look how spotless the bike is.

It is located in Dresden. No Audiomick, not there, but in Ohio... I know, it is confusing.

i have seen that one, thank you mate.  there is another i've been watching also, for under $5,000.  11k miles and fully serviced.  these bikes just don't typically sell for big money...

well, that was interesting!  it was a 60th Anniversary crossplane crank R1 though, a pretty superb bike.

For that one you have to log in to facebook. Not going to happen...

I think that one sold.

My old stomping grounds...now that's more like it with the price. Oh, but that seat!

that is more in line with realistic pricing...

the 3+ year search ended today when i picked up this pristine Le Mans near Atlanta.  3,500 miles, same owner for over 12 years, $4,500...

Good for you!

I would say you got it at a pretty good price.

12 years, 3500 miles.... I did that in one month!

There is something I am missing here...

Meaning, 3500 miles in 12 years, that's about 300m/y.

Am I the only one riding his bike every day?

[fastaussie]

i doubt it.  but some people have more bikes than time.

i bought my little Daytona 675R with 1,250 miles on it at a decade old.  one of my Ducati's with about the same, and even older.  my Aprilia with even less, 701 miles.  my 1996 900ss came with 6k miles while two decades old.

i have to say, i don't mind buying 'em with ridiculously low miles.  nothing like a new(ish) 20 year old bike...
