Unbelivable! £11999 US GS1000S

For £12K you'd want it in fully original almost out of the crate condition. This doesn't even come close.

85mph US clocks - blahhh!
Look to be those cheap Chinese rear shocks that are about £85?
No chain guard
No centre stand
Non standard indicators
Chromed bits that weren't originally chromed

They do put "A bike like this at this price will not be seen again for some time!" - which at least will be hopefully correct as it should be about £5k tops!
