is this a real R

listerjones · Apr 26, 2013

Hi I'm going to look at this on saturday. A couple people on here have mentioned the stickers are not genuine R stickers.

I've done a HPI check etc and all clear, no colour changes etc.

Can you tell me what to look for for a genuine R. Would it be on the log book as an R.

Thanks for your time and experience.

Pretty sure it's an r the standard models stripes on the tank were solid

It's got all the bits..ohlins,carbon,etc

No it may not say om the logbook as they registered as all sorts of different things

I would say the description means its going to be a little rough being used daily for 5 year
"This bike has been used as a comuter for the last five years in all weathers except snow ice and salt. The general condition would be consistent with this type of use. "

There are probably cleaner,lower mileage ones out there for the same money

Sure i saw that on Ebay last summer too looks ok tho. But like redratbike says cheaper cleaner ones around for same price.

Does it matter? it would be far more expensive to change a std to an R anyway so I doubt that is what has happened.
I know because I want the wheels and suspenders but the wheels alond fetch between £500-£700 then £300 or so for forks plus £150 or so for rear shock thats over a grand without all the carbon bits.
