Not sure on that price 
but an awful lot of work has gone into that bike

If you added up all the bits it would cost you probably 5-10k more than the asking price to build the bike from scratch, but I reckon 15-18k would be a more realistic selling price. Then again you never know all it takes is one person with a lot of spare dosh to take a fancy to it
Air filter Is held on by rubber bunges and zip ties....
A long list of the ‘right’ parts doesn’t necessarily make the perfect bike. I would quite like to have a go at building something like that but would never be able to make the most of it and as Mad Hatter says it would cost more in parts than it’d ever be worth.
I would be interested in Mikeyboy’s opinion but pretty it ain’t!
Probably the only bit that is G/S is the Frame
A lot of effort into it
But You would spend more time watching out who was going near it in Tescos car park than shopping
850 GS with a GSA tank and Carbs fitted would give you a better result and a helluva lot cheaper too Even with top line Ohlins !

It’s been nicely done
At least £25k in parts and services to build that (DAMHIK!). And tbh a Kove 450 or ktm 640 is a more capable bike.
Which is why I no longer have mine and have a 640 …

Think that was the one sold by Motorad Konnection a while back. Only thing I don't like is the fairing, though I appreciate the provenance and (probable) practicality. Everything else is terrific - zip ties and all!
It is very much an HPN replica, in my opinion, and very similar in looks to one that one of our airhead brethren owns.
If I had the money going spare, I'd certainly be taking a closer look at it.
