As it says to be auctioned on 11-13 Nov, I assume it didn't hit it's reserve.
As an aside I went to a local car auction place (EAMA) a couple of weekends ago that was having a classic car sale with some bikes through in. It isn't one of the main bike auction houses so thought things might go cheaper, but I was disappointed, some of the prices achieved (not all) were a little unbelievable - I'll think I try an Auction if I sell again, but with realistic reserve.

The sub heading says WEC (?) in November, but the blurb says London Motorcycle Show at ExCel in Feb
I'd happily ride around on that, but it's not £10K perfect though. Only my opinion, others are available

I'm surmising that it didn't sell at WEC , so is on the ticket for excel in February where it probably won't sell either , so it's being listed as a classified to fill that gap and get maximum viewings .
Someone may fall for the rare only 166 imported line and feel it warrants the price tag ..
At an auction it who's in the bidding on the day.

I'm not one of them

I would expect a bit better condition for £10K
