Its real money but I know this bike, built by a NOS obsessive, if you want one close to built from brand new parts

Are we talking about the bike in the pictures  ??? Built from brand new parts  ??? maybe a bit of NOS on it but its hardly built from NOS parts  ::)

Would love a peek at those chrome inner tubes  ;D

Its a nice example but a long way from built from NOS  ;) have you started on the sherry early this Xmas Marc  :D

Its a bonus that its registered  :) price wise i wouldn't have a clue but as with anything its worth what sombodys prepared to pay  :)

Yes, here in NZ the TT came with minimal lights and speedo.

There was an optional lighting kit and an optional speedo kit for the TT - don't know if they were ever imported into Oz, but they were a big sellers in Europe.

They were the speedo and headlight etc off the IT400C all packaged together into a couple of kits.

Euro TT owners still lap them up.

The big ticket items are the speedo kits.  The headlights are a dime a dozen.

One of those speedo kits (NOS) sold on eBay about 6 months ago for around US$600.  (that's just for a speeod, speedo drive, cable, and mounting brackets)

Which is probably quite a bit less these days, seems like TT500 values have taken the slide along with everything else. ::)
