I hardly ever see them for sale, I guess for good reason, because of the rarety. If they ARE for sale, are they gonna be priced like they are priced in N.A.D.A. or higher? Are they even street legal? Have I mentioned that I want one? | ||
| Davegess |
They are street legal. Value goes up every day. I doubt the NADA quide is accurate | ||

 A pair of RR1200's from Uke's Museum. Street legal - yes! 1313 | ||

That is the RR1200 I about trashed doing a spectacular exit from the old Uke's parking lot! I am still ticked I passed on one for $5,000 being offered by a bank after being repossesed. They had no idea what they had. That was in the days when Buells weren't even listed. . . I still recall my lecture...."look, it's either got to be a Bricklin or a Buick...there is NO BUELL" | ||

I know where you can get the very first as in the prototype RR1000. Johnny Mckosh has it.Quite alot of history in that bike that doesn't appear in the other RR's. | ||
| Dana P. |
Heres a pic of John and the RR on the right.She has a name to.Thats a story all in its self.Like Court would say "remind me to tell you about it".Want details I can set you up with John.  | ||

Isn't the other one "Janis"? Thats what Johnny signed on my 20th Anniversary Poster. $5,000.00 Court - you were a silly man to pass on that. | ||
| Dana P. |
Newfie Yeah that would be Janis on the left.Does anyone know why the names??Shhhh... Court quiet or ya owe me another hat.LOL Oh yeah the RR has a name to anyone know what and why.HeHe!! | ||

Hal's HD still has one for sale I think. They want $25000 for it. www.halshd.com Jeff | ||
| Dana P. |
Yep they have listed it on Ebay once or twice.I'd rather have Johnny's 1000 though.Lots of history in that bike and why things are different on the other 1000's and 1200's.Check that seat out...its brown and cloth thats a story all by itself.LOL | ||
| Cochise |
Think he would donate it to The American Thunderbike Club? That would be the only way IO could afford it, especially for those prices | ||
| Newfie_buell |
Isn't the name on the other "Erika"???? | ||
| Dana P. |
Newfie....Ding,Ding,Ding is right with half the answer now why is she called Erika?? Cochise I think really the guy won't ever let it leave his living room.But she is 4 sale for the ching. | ||
| Cochise |
lol | ||

That RR looks like something out of an H.G. Wells book. What a phenomenal machine. | ||

So Hal's went from $18k to $25k on #8 of 9? I haven't been down to their shop in months, I'll have to wander down there this month. | ||
| Steve_mackay |
Mike, and they finally have a demo Uly you could ride  | ||
| Mikej |
Nah, I'll pass on the Uly demo ride, decided it wasn't for me. Besides I can't comfortably reach the dang ground on one, so double-no. Oh well. Now if they'd bring the RR down from it's perch and freshen up the tires and make that available for a demo ride I'd head down there in about 32 seconds. Still can't afford it, but I'd surely welcome a demo ride on it. | ||
| Steve_mackay |
Mike, for some odd reason, I don't think Kirk would get that bike down for a simple demo ride | ||
| Mikej |
Yeah, I know, he wouldn't even pump up the tires on it when it was in the old building's showroom back in 1999 for a simple demo ride.  | ||

There was a race RR1000 sold last month at Bonhams auctioneers in London for around £15000 (US$26250). Apparently it had belonged to an Italian and been raced just twice in it's history. | ||
| Easy_rider |
How 'bout for two demo rides?.... |
