Yes - exactly as shown in the article :P

other than marcs wjheels, what diff is there with the foggy and sps versions? Seem the same to me:puzzled:

Foggy reps were built especially for Moto Cinelli (the UK importer at the time) and only came into the UK rather than being a world-wide release.

They had carbons fairings and the Foggy-rep sticker kit I believe.

Basically a tricked-up SPS.

The Foggy rep has a different frame. It was built to homologate a new frame required for the bigger airbox.

Ahh, but I didnt realise the article said that so instead of just clicking the link I searched high and low for the Haynes manual and quoted that (with the exception of the dogs danglies) ;):P
