Yeah well heres to hoping the Ohlins forks are straight, looks like the fairing mounts took the hit, knew they were good for something  ;D

Still for $1200 US I think I will do OK ;)> have spare tank and motor amoungst my goodies. Plus the race glass for it is pretty cheap out the USA.

Well $1200 Paul Smart Rep arrives in 6 large boxes, seller saved me some spanner work.  ;)

Hits is it is all there and not too bad actaully, misses, broken top engine mount, lucky I have spare engine for $400 and frame $600  ;D

Also spare instruments, ECU, keys, gas cap etc that cost me almost as much as the complete wreck.

Thats a bargain, they are a great bike. One of our Newcastle Classic road bike club members has one of these, as well as a genuine Hailwood 900, so he gets to ride both eras of bike. A wee bit more racy than my GTS 860!

well having owned a genuine 900 hundred Hailwood i am hoping the Paul Smart is more agreeable than the Taglioni time bomb. have Hailwood Pantah for those nostalgic moments where the fuses jump out and your jeans go through the belts  ;D
