Hi Steve,

Bought it last March, 2 owners from new, single spark with 33 thousand miles on it.

It`s meant to be ridden, not for showing in the living room!!!!!!

It`s not mint but in very good condition for nearly 14 years old.

Rob

Looks like an ultra-tidy bike with the good options added.........

If it were me - I'd swap the dark tank pads for clear. The bike has sufficient graphics in my opinion.

Other than red rim-tape, which even the most vociferous of detractors - would secretly admit......... is QUALITY :twisted:

If I am ever on life support - Unplug me......
Then plug me back in..........

See if that works ..... :?

Hi Al,

You`re quite right. I too would like to get rid of the dark tank pads but not sure how to and don`t want to damaged the paint work underneath.

Any ideas welcome!!!!

Ps Iv`e had rim tape on other bikes before but in blue. Maybe that's the reason the bike couldn`t go faster :lol:

Hi Mitch,

Not sure the RWB Replika is quicker actually!!

Anyway if you mix the three colours together RWB you`d probably get a pink bike going at plus 100 MPH

Just a thought :lol:

Most sticky things can be removed by using a hair dryer to warm the sticker and gently peel off.

Trick is go slow and be gentle

I've got some sort of solvent for removing adhesive if there's any left on - I'll let you know what it is when I've read the label on the tin!!

Don't listen to them Rob .... the single spark Mamola BCR IS the quickest, much quicker and rarer than those common RWB tarts ;)
