neilnh Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 looking at a 4rt later this week how can you prove whether its a repsol or not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shercoben12 Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 usually by the couler but if your not sure write down the frame and engine number and phone up piddocks montesa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jj65 Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 Not sure about the earlier ones, but the bike should have a limited edition plaque mounted on the O/S near the headstock of the frame. It may have been removed, but the owner should have it. The original bill of sale should describe it as a Repsol Replica and you could also contact Pidcocks with the frame number.

laser1 Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 If you look at the price and fall to you knees it a 4rt. If you completely pass out, its a Repsol..... Sorry - couldnt help myself. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jj65 Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 this is interesting. i didnt know these were different bikes. whats different about the 4rt and the repsol then? Last few years the difference has been, Repsol colour, carbon fork covers, carbon fork brace, carbon headlight, carbon clutch cover and carbon header pipe protector and silencer cover.

jj65 Posted January 11, 2013 Report Share Posted January 11, 2013 (edited) Fakes can be just as nice as the real thing, just not worth as much for some reason. 4rt's are like Mini's, lots of accessories to personalise your bike and make it yours, it'll just cost you an arm and leg ;0).
