Saw this on Ebay, not mine, but somebody can get a new one...

nice find, this is unbelievable, i can't believe someone kept this bike in a crate, damn i wish i had some money.......

"...company owner had planned (years ago) to put into his personal racing collection..."

Surrrrre he did...heh ;)


Was probably banking on it to be as valuable as a RC30 or 45. However, with it being never titled and still including the manufacturer's warranty, someone will eventually purchase it (certainly not ME lol).

Perhaps an enthusiast will add it to their bike collection.

I did like how the dealer included a pic of the MCO and warranty/PDI worksheet among the other pics to document the bike online (always helps with units that are sold as "new old stock").

Thanks for posting that up OP...

There has been a few Nicky editions that came up over the past 2 years still in the crate. Like what was already stated, i think a lot of guys buy this bike in anticipation that it's going to be like a RC45, RC30, or a "special edition" like the Haga/Edwards Replica Aprilia Mille, or the Foggy Ducati's.
The downside is as we know that all 2004's are the so called Nicky Hayden Edition.

FWIW, the winning bid was:
