Extortionate............. :?

But - at least you can add a great-value tankpad, without going too far over budget............. :roll:

The RA says "gold forks and calliper so to match the champagne detailing"

Those calliper are deffo black to me?

Saw the "special" RS in the flesh yesterday at ExCel, and It' didn't leave me feeling the need to chop in my regular Grey RS... The price of a fancy paint job is silly, especially since it doesn't look any better than the standard ones in my ever so humble opinion...

You really need only two tools: WD-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40. If it moves and shouldn't, use the tape.

My Grey RS has gold callipers, so I assume the one in the picture is a mis-build... They seem to make a lot of those these days.

Perhaps they're made of gold? Might go some way to explain the cost....

@ the excel yesterday i sat on the S1000 XR, now that did tickle my fancy... BUT if you opted for a finance option it took it too a grand total of around £17k!

I'll wait a few years for depreciation to kick in a little..
