Apparently LAP has listed 7 1190 RS's on eBay with BIN's of ~$25k.

I dont think I'll be a player unless they list the American Flag theme.

IIRC, the American flag theme was only on an RX, right?

I believe that's correct. There was at least one black/red one that looked really cool, but most seem to have been carbon fiber.

As someone pointed out, just the suspension components on the bike are worth ~$20k.

Pretty sure they made at least one RS

That one went to Australia I think. Pretty sure someone posted that it made it's way over there and was purchased.

I tried to upload the pics I have of it, but the forum wasnt working. I would be interested in that one.

It would seem all the RS bikes listed on Ebay have aluminum wheels.

That's what is holding me back.

I thought they came with magnesium wheels.

The number of them for sale at 1 time, with no takers on the Buy It Now prices would seem to cheapen the market.

I have been able to buy a REAR magnesium wheel with tire from EBR.

No fronts available.

I'm still going to hold out for the flag theme. IF that pops up, I am going to get in a bidding war.

Seems you are correct. Makes you wonder whats up with the bikes on eBay.

I doubt that will happen, pretty sure those are long gone.

I'll ask tomorrow though, I'll be at the factory.

The mag wheels were pulled off of the built ones for racing efforts as there was only a limited supply. They substituted the aluminium ones.

The American Flag RS is (or at least was) privately owned in Texas.

The Australian Flag RS is privately owned in Australia.

The RS bikes available for sale from LAP are all carbon editions - some black, some red.

The fiberglass red/white/black RS is currently not available for sale.

This one, # 34, seems to be absent from the list above. If my intuition is right, it is/was also privately owned in Texas (along with the American Flag RS - which is #29 BTW...)

I almost mentioned the stainless steel bike (not sure if it has a more proper name - that's just what I call it). Apparently that owner also has/had a regular carbon black RS. That one I'm assuming for just for personal use and not a show piece like the other two. I got some basic info about the owner but haven't had a chance to reach out to him to update the status of the bikes. Hopefully they are all still with the same person and not scattered across the country in private collections hidden away.

(Thanks for the VINs on those two - I didn't have them in my list)
(Oh, and the carbon fiber Australian Flag bike is #28)

Thats ok, I don't think I need another bike sitting. I would probably put it in my house to look at and admire lol.

Suks, in that it kills the collectability of the RS bikes being sold.

Just to clarify, magnesium wheels ?

Will that one be on Ebay ?

At least seriously wounded.

To a serious collector, 10 % of the detail can make a 90 %, or more, difference in price.

Well when they want 200 odd dollars for a front sprocket 21k seems like a bargain lol

Well they came off their price. Though that's just a starting bid. They had been high 30's for a couple years. They never responded when i asked about buying the rug or EBR banners after the first shutdown.

It doesnt look like it has a reserve so i dunno if 21k gets it.

Lol @ asking about the rug thats great!

Maybe not the banner you're after but i like this

yes, the magnesium wheel option

haven't listed it on Ebay in a while.....got no action there.

just turned down an offer of $20k on it. We need to be in the $25K range on this one. We paid $30K for it. If we don't get around 25K, we'll just keep it. Someday it will go up in value.
