What a lot of flannel in the sales pitch :roll: suggesting the gpz550 was much more famous amongst “enthusiasts” than the gpz900… :Oo

Nice bike but the asking price is just plain stupid. The one owner bit is bollox too as it’s the 3rd owner that’s selling it….not that owner number makes a massive difference, it’s just irritating

Apparently "Cycle World" takes a different view.

I'm pretty sure you could have them for "misrepresentation" if you could be bothered !
There are a lot of unsubstantiated and debatable claims that could mislead the uninitiated enough to part with their hard-earned cash.

I’d sooner have that wee early one than the 1986 one a friend of mine had one back then it was a good wee bike and looks like a mini Lawson. Still wouldn’t be worth the money in the C&C ad, you wouldn’t even have to pay that for a good ELR.

Hi.
Apart the ergonomic shift and slight straight line performance increase all the Unitrack models [ had one ] weren't as entertaining as they're upright forebears. Uni 550's weren't abundant then so why want one? 4.5K max.
