It must be one of the last batch of bikes which were converted to run on carbs. There were only about 150 of them left at the factory, and all covered in dust (see pic) - but a couple of dozen were brought into Britain by a chap called Paul Bridgend I think. They're being cleaned up and sold as 'new' - which I suppose they are. The last I heard, the price was to be around £10,500. They've twice the power of an Aprilia RS250, with approx the same weight to push - so I bet they dunnarf shift! (But with their 'problem' history, I'm not sure if buying one would just be chucking money away). All the same, I'll take a look on Saturday if I get the chance.

Cheers
Steve
