wow got money to buy they oso dun wan sell u sia...

[KISS]

I believe the teams leased the bikes for US$500,000 including 1 engineer for a season. Read it somewhere many years back.

[stroker]

Wrong. Its PRICELESS. MotoGP works machines like the M1, RCV212, GP07, GSVR etc are not for sale. No amount of money can net you one of the works machine.

 

As for those 'Customer' machines, they (purportingly) cost around US$1mil +++ a year just to LEASE it. The team will have to accessed for eligibility. Faster riders get better graded machines. They get more up to date parts/ setups.. The slower riders get a year or two-old machines.

 

After the lease is up, ALL machines are to be returned to the factory to be crushed. Only a select few will be kept and stored in the museum.

 

However, once a while, some parts land up on the streets.. IE Roling Chassis etc.. Never engines.

 

$75k can hardly get you even any decent SBK specs machines. The engine alone costs $40k USD up. Throw in some decent works grade suspension, handling, chasis etc in, I think you're looking upwards of $100+++K for a decent SBK bike.

 

2pence. Feel free to correct. ;-p

That's the Ducati Desmosedici D16RR. Road-going Replica of GP06. That's about the closest you can get your hands to motogp technology. ;-p

Think this might help. Found it somewhere in motorcyclenews.com

 

"the current 250GP class, where lease costs for a factory Aprilia can be over one million Euros.

 

That is only around 500,000 Euros short of what it costs to lease a Honda RC212V in MotoGP, MCN understands."

[ractive89]

sorry ar...wat is a SBK???

[hitman]

post deleted.

[stroker]

u mean a replica of wat Stoner is riding?

 

The replica of MotoGP 990cc machine of Ducati in 2006. Code named GP06. 200bhp machine bog stock. Throw in the factory supplied race exhaust, will liberate another 20bhp.

 

On a side note, the works 990cc GP06 is about 250- 260bhp.
