Foggy's bike or not, that's one hell of a lot to spend on what is essentially a 916SPS.

that a pice of history, noy just a 916SPS, in the same way those race bikes n the Ducati Factory aren't just Ducatis, they are pieces of history ...

Truth be told, its not an expensive one either ... I reckon a Lance Armstrong pedal bike will go for more ....

I don't agree - it's not that special a bike. You'd have to keep it as it is - unridden - to maintain any value. Where's the point in that?

Mind you, I'm not a Foggy fan so maybe that explains my point of view.

Hmm,number 2 of 200 made.(Hoss Elm has no.1)
The bike with the required airbox mod to enable the Fogmeister to win world championship no.3.
How cool is it to have a Foggy rep with the previous owner on the log book a Mr.C.Fogarty.
Makes the bike very special IMO.
