After years of trawling I have finally found one for sale,
now just to convince the better half that it is a sensible investment.

Looks nice except for the bubblewrap on the sides of the tank :-?

A customer bought an F4-SPR in for a valet a while ago, matt black, not quite so in yer face as the Senna.

should have plate with number on the yoke also certification with same number, also mke sure its standard or has standard parts with it as these parts are very expensive to buy. all looks good in the photos apart from grip stuck on tank.just remember service costs will be high and there is now a mv dealer near southampton

JJ,
cheers for the heads up mate, I am going up easter weekend to hopefully buy it. How much is servicing normally?

My other half accused me of having a 'problem' for thinking this sounds heavenly -

A standard F4 750 is about £5500 if you can find somebody willing to part with one!

I think my OH will leave me if I get another bike for a while - I've gone through 5 in the past 12 months :o I get him to do all the little jobs and service them and then seem to get bored. I think I need more than one really. I can still hear that sound.....

Well I'm sure he could be convinced, my OH is allowing me to have two.

servicing seems to be 2 to 3 times more expensive than jap stuff also check your iinsurance as that can really hurt. have you driven a mv it can be a bit of an eye opener

I haven't ridden one and the guy isn't willing, but I can't really blame him.
Insurance was surprising, it is only £30 more than my XJ6 insurance and that isn't multibike.
