Correct me if I am wrong but I believe about £350.   Its quite a beast and a heck of alot of brass to warm up in that cylinder block.

the SP1 is not real big bore and stroke but I am sure the SP7 would be better.

Another SP6 owner here, it maybe the Forest Classics edition with the green base.



A few build quality niggles on this one and the messy exhaust set up is an annoyance but it is a strong and enjoyable performer nonetheless.

Pretty certain it is the Forest Classics version due to the colour of the base.
We have now found four SP6 owners.
