I've just joined this forum and I'm looking to buy an 888, probably a post 92 one. You appear to have been helpful to other prospective buyers in the past so heres hoping. I don't know if the budget would stretch to a SP5 as that would be the ultimate but who knows.
Looked like this when I bought it,the stickers left marks when they came off,front had stone chips etc.To make the job perfect the only way is a complete repaint.
My '93 888 Strada (gold frame/black wheels) will be up for sale at the beginning of Feb once its back from the painters. It all looks standard but I have had a 916 engine conversion done by Steve Hillary at MotoRapido.
U2U if interested and I can send you some pics and the spec.
