NMNA. My friend owned this bike forever however recent health issues keep him from riding. It's here mostly for Show 'n Tell as most of you folks just couldn't justify $24k.

I'm glad that is 24K. I don't have room in my garage for anything else.
Beautiful bike and I loved riding my uncle's back in the day.
Not an S, but a clone; mine will be leaving the ranch this spring.
Gorgeous! Thanks for sharing. I'm not in the market as I'm more of a small/midweight bike guy, and I want something exclusive and Italian for the next addition to the fleet (Bimota?) But looks like someone will be stoked to own that bike. GLWS for your buddy!
Yeah, I feel ya. I almost bought a Bimota Mantra, but I had a better shot at a super model than coming up with the $23,000.
My R-90.
A fellow grad student friend of mine had one when they first came out. He was a bike guy (had a Matchless and Ducati too) and ex helicopter pilot in Vietnam. A great guy that got prostate cancer while still young. I contacted him a couple of years ago and he had just retired from the USDA as a Phd research scientist and bought a nice motorhome to tour the country. I got a message that he had passed away a year ago from cancer.
The tanks were painted by a little old lady in Germany. If it ever needed to be painted, it was sent back to her.
