No, I’m not selling it

[Teego]

Do you know where it is Paul?

[Stig]

I know WHERE it is but I’ve not actually seen it for approx 5 years

Bonly, Try Padgett’s at Batley. I’ve know they had half a dozen brand new exups still in their crates. Well they did have the last time I was talking to Clive Padgett. I bet the price will be a bit eye watering though.

Silver I hope too...

On a serious note this would be amazing!

Clive said he had 4 in speed block colours, but he didn’t mention what the other 2 colours were.

This needs investigating..

Anyone up Batley way that can pop in and ask?

[BONLY1]

Been a while and I did enquire and received this reply a couple of days ago.

Good afternoon Gary
Happy New Year and hope you are well.
Many thanks for your enquiry regarding the above motorcycle.
Sorry, these are paddock rumours – we don’t have either of the models you are looking for in crates.
Many thanks and best wishes

Ah well, the dream goes on!

[Stig]

What a shame

There are still some nice second hand bikes out there if you bide your time. Fortunately the EXUP hasn’t yet acquired the desirability of the LC’s so prices are still realistic

I’ll keep my eye out if you don’t mind a low milage 2nd hand

[nugget]

Well that makes me out to be a bit of a fibber.

This is how it went. I was at the sherburn Cafe a while ago, and I was talking to a lad who used to work at Padgetts. He told me about the Exups in crates etc. I had a ride over to Padgetts just to have a look at some paddock jackets. While I was there I saw Clive and mentioned the Exups in crates that the lad had told me about. He did say he had some, but now when I think back, he did have a smile/smirk on his face, so unless he was peeing up my back I'm not sure.

Good luck with the hunt Bonly1. I hope you find one in the condition you want.
