That is an ugly bike and he would have to pay me $21,000.00 to take it.

$21K no chance, then you would have to spend a lot of money to sort all of the paint and find a decent pipe. The green engine would be a pain to sort out, lucky to get $15K.

Not really my cup of tea but sure would be interested in hearing the story behind it.
I may be in the minority but I'd ride it. Cool

Frame almost looks like a Speed Triple or 955 Daytona. With the Single sided swingarm, I'm almost certain. But I could be wrong.

240 HP. It's possible with correct tuning and fuel maps. I know several Turbo Busa's just shy of 240hp.

Yes sir. That is one ugly bike. Almost like they were trying to make it ugly.

The frame is Spondon aluminum pipe frame(guess the best available for the XBeuaty is beyond the eye of the beholder Idea

It is fugly but...RSR is also a spondon(however without turbo and is generaly considered as one of the most beuatifull X specials Exclamation

So...A big deal is colour(yuck, but undiscusable)other reason is bodywork, mostly the "german style lardass a car just buped up to it streetfightertail Evil or Very Mad

"Apparently there are persons whom like it Rolling Eyes

Also exhaust pipes could have been a bit more "stylish"BUT...Look beyond all that and the potential is enormous Cool

(just my 2cents

I would give him $15k for it anyday. Would have to change color and pipes.

I would like to see some guy in a green Kermit the frog suit riding it and doing a burnout. That would be fun! Laughing
