Beautiful bike. I wonder how it ended up in Kerpen?!
Interesting fact. Original MSRP is 30k

Dueller need this bike!

Interesting. The Buells never really made me tingle. Especially with a sporty motor in them.

Now this, though.....

VR1000 is so cool.

I remember DuHamel running that machine in the inaugural AMA season. Even though I'm not a Harley fan I was rooting for them.

If we're getting nostalgic for 90's race bikes, I'd say skip both of those and go for this:

I would put some sticky tires on it and ride it on the street (see cafe racer thread)!

That's a Britten. Only the coolest motorcycle ever produced (IMO).

Collector Production Racer

any collector produced what ever is NOT a good collectible

production racer is both an oxymoron and currently an obsolete racer

and what class is a 1,339 cc bike ? none I know of

Sooo. Back in the 1990's I worked for an aluminum company that produced the most bicycle frames in the continental US. The bike division got the contract to make 50 of the VR1000's I believe. We had one. Never fired. Keys in the CFO's desk. It was incredibly sexy. I found this on the web:

"What was interesting about the VR1000 was that it had a street-legal (sort of) variant, required by AMA rules to homologate the racing machine. The road-going VR was made in a run of 50 examples (all that was needed to homologate), sold for the low-low price of 49,490$. For that you got two colours for the price of one (black on one side, orange on the other, and a white stripe betwixt). The roadgoing VR was a high spec sportbike that weighed around 400 lbs and knocked out 135 hp"

I am pretty certain this is the bike we made the frame for. I remember that there were only 50 made and that the price was $50k.

Scott: There's a Britten (1 of 10) on display at the Petersen.

I agree with Jacob's comment: possibly the coolest sport bike of all time.
