“Although I feel extremely sorry for the person whole had the bike stolen by some scum bag, I want to point out that, yes, the bike is one of only 500 made. But it is not however worth over £500, they were never that much brand new!
How do I know this.... Because I bought the exact same one off a friend in the summer with certificate (think mine is no 117/500) for 80 quid and he had the original invoice of £400 from about 3 yrs ago!”
