me too. I reckon 5k would be a good deal for the buyer for an RZ500 with 2 engines but no fairings wouldnt it? Or am I missing something? Ive seen fairing panels on ebay for the last year, so seems they are easier to find than the 250/350 panels.

Wish I could find the money, would be a nice build. So how come youre not going to build this one then? the last one you did fast and it looked amazing.

I would take the 5k and run. A complete rebuild is on the cards there after the purchase and then the missing bits, no way thats worth 5K.

Its a fair point Pat, I reckon that those of us who havent built one might think 5k is good value, but those who have been there already know for sure what it's missing... and how hard it would be to find those parts... and the work that is ahead.

It does have a spare engine , less crank, and looking at the prices they are asking for parts, I think you could easily wreck out the whole lot for more than 5k.
