he owned a few of them I believe. If that's the one he was riding when he met his demise, who knows what it'd go for. Although if I was selling it I'd probably be waiting a couple of years before putting it up for auction.

I think the one he died on has got quite a bit of front end damage....

you've got good eyes, couldnt see it, but when I screwed my eyes up it confirmed what I thought I knew that it happened at Bovington (where they test the British Tanks).  If it went back to teh factory it will be ship shape now doubt.  SS100 are £100K+ every day of the week....  one of his would of course be worth a lot more.

one sold late last year for GBP 210,500 . Should be checking chook sheds for these, not RH250's  ;D
