and one "replica" as well as a Jota.

The 750 SFC makes me scratch my head.... stickers not origianl, a chromed or polished tail-light seems unusual and some other things here and there... Marnix would be able to confirm more details I am sure, that is just what springs to my uneducated eyes. Price seems to be fair though.

ND instruments on a 18000 batch? Were any Elettronicas specced for US market?

 

[motoddrob]

The Ducati market seems to have dropped as well, singles for less than 10k Oz and the Guzzi Lemons are reasonably price too.
Hey Pat, I'd say the instruments were fitted after market. Front mudguard on the Electronica is also non original.

A number of Elettronicas were ordered with ND clocks. These were for the rest stock, so no blinkers, mirrors etc. No Elettronicas were officially exported to US.

Everything has dropped.
Plenty of Vincent rapides to be had, often at less than £ 30 000. Half what they were going for 5 or 6 years ago.
Iconic Bonnevilles well under 10 000.
As for Slater's Jotas, where is the applause button?

It's a buyers and a riders market, not one for people for whom having a bigger one than the neighbours is important.

You don't half drone on about prices Paul, nothing wrong with Slater Jotas either.

No, they burn before that.

That's because I'm a motorcyclist.

I'm left with a large number of false Slater Jota certificates, nobody's interested any more.
I could do you an interesting price.

You seem to have too much time on your hands Paul and you know what they say, the devil makes work for idle hands.

Who on this forum would be interested in false certificates? Didn't even know they existed..

Very easy to spot a fake Slater certificate…they’re in French.

They exist every where money is involved.
False bikes, false documents.
And there's not only this forum out there.

Nah, they don't know who Slaters was over here, apart from members of the Vincent club.

I'll ask the neighbors wife & get back to you...

 

[MarnixSFC]

Fortunately I’m no Jota specialist. No amount of documents will convince me if an 750SFC is real or replica, in most of the cases even at first glance.

If I wanted to trick somebody and take his money over a dubious 750 SFC, it wouldn't be you Marnix.
There are plenty of people out there quite ready to oblige.

Fun fact: There were more serious sellers offering dubious SFC than dubious sellers offering serious SFC
