Can we stop pretending that that's the original bike. Si obviously managed to sell it a while back so fessing up isn't going to hurt him.

The original 101 is still in the loft at hpn and is still owned by bmw. In common with a lot of race machines parts were robbed to put on later bikes.

I've worked on the one in the advert and it's an early r90/6. I also spotted the advert for the tank that's fitted and told si about it.

102 is there as well

Yes, but there wasn't just one bike, they had a few of them I believe, it's one of those 'other' bikes that became Camille. Camille certainly isn't the Dakar winner, but I do believe that she is a genuine development/spare/practice machine, although we are only really talking about the frame and tank, the rest has been remade or messed around with.

Apparently, a note from Proff saying that it's real.

It was always bollocks talked up by one or two who professed to 'know' when the majority knew the truth.
Good luck to Si though if he managed to find a mug to buy it for more than the price of a good basic.

Shit bust I just don't think that I could buy a motorcycle from someone that doesn't know how to turn caps lock off!
