Set a machine shop up and have about 11 staff to pay for..... Then you will see why we sell them for that price..

I was talking about the old used one on eBay being overpriced not the new ones, sounds like somebody's touchy about their prices

At that price its bloody good value!!! considering the amount of time and investment and design, and the limited amount they can actually sell. For a piece of precision engineering from a small company, its cheap!!!!!!!!! PS, I have no connection or knowledge of this company!!!! |

Just had another look at the pics I took at Matlock this last Sunday of the 250lc I seen there , it looks to have box section swing arm , not as shiney though!
Take a look on the latest 'What you did with your lc today page'
Anyone know that bike , or the 350N ?
My piggy bank is dry at the moment , sorry I can't take one of the 5 at the moment.

Your tip is in the post :-) lol Don't want a tip!!! I used to work for a small engineering company, so I have some idea into how much work was involved in producing something like this. |
