My guess someone made them an offer they couldn't refuse for the ohlins front end and brakes? possibly. who knows. maybe instead of selling them cheap they are looking at parting them out high. Makes more sence to me in some cases. :huh2:

I have seen this too. Lately there were 3 (!) V11s on mobile.de without forks, all stolen. I don't know what they'd want with Marzocchis though.

Cafe sport's have Öhlins shocks.. I guess the rear was too much of a job for the criminals to remove.. :-o

 

edit: from mobile.de, the same seller: http://www.wrackbike.de/

hi all. this is in Gross Gerau, just 8km up the road from where I live. It could be from the dealer where I purchased my bike (Stein, Bad Nauheim - now moved to Russelsheim) or very likely from one his customers in this area, as its a way to any other dealer from here.

I would guess that German insurance has written it off (new front end etc. is more than the value of the bike!) and he opted to keep the rest and sell it privately as the amount offered by the insurance to buy it off him was lower than what he expects to get on e-bay. I guess if you need a motor/frame/etc. or have space to store a spare v11 its a bargain :)

depends on where it ends how good the deal is. I think it's going to be to expensive to have fun with.

Granted. But if it were in reasonable logisitic reach for me (which it isn't), I have a spare front rim, forks etc. Stock ones and obviously not as good as the departed Ohlins, but that wouldn't leave all too much that had to be replaced to make the bike whole.

 

Com to think of it, I probably should be saving up for an MGS02.... :mg:
