I do like the look of these bikes, the wife says NO.
Around 110 rwhp but I think the torque is the most impressive thing at around 65 ft lbs

Bike is UK owned and registered. Asking 18K GBP which, given RG500 prices, doesn't seem unreasonable these days. If it was here, I'd be looking at it seriously.

1000 miles on it is more likely than 1000 miles from Newcastle! Currency is all relative to which country we live in. If I lived in England it would be an $18,000 bike to me and a good deal! I would have made a move on it already if I lived there!

for US people it's not old enough for street use/import, lucky everyone else.
if it was here .... or I was there.
4 x 125 sounds better than 2 x 250 so I'm pretty happy to have the rz

If it was an $18,000 bike today I'd likely take advantage of Canada's 15 year import rule. At 18,000 Pounds it becomes a $30,000 bike and the added expense and grief of importing are far less attractive.
The only way I'll ever own one is if I have one of those right place/right time moments. I can't remember the last one I saw for sale in Canada, or if I ever have.

Last one on my bucket list for a stock production 2 stroke. Only chance for me would be selling an RGV500 and finding a V-Due in North America for a reasonable price. I would drive a LONG way to pick up one of those!
