You're all missing the obvious...the Honda Blackbird, it's currently the bargain of the century, especially the early carb models. I sold mine this year.. 39,000 miles, c/w Maxton rear unit, new Bridgestones,VFR 800 h/bars ( more comfortable ) White Power front springs, £1600. It was in very good nick, full MOT and owned by me for 10yrs.
I advertised it on eBay for over three weeks with no interest until a guy came over from Sweden and rode it back.
Don't believe the bollocks about linked brakes being crap either, with EBC HH pads they were superb, especially two up.
The build quality is high as is reliability...downsides....the seat is uncomfortable, there's a big market in custom seats.
Don't give the 'bird a miss, you won't be disappointed....Oh! 172mph at Elvington Top Speed day. So why did I sell it ? Arthritis in my neck..I needed a more upright riding poition.
