Valentino Rossi's TT Yamaha R1 on eBay

We last saw Valentino Rossi’s Yamaha YZF-R1 that he rode a parade lap during the 2009 Isle of Man TT in front of Highbarn Motorcycles that owner Steve Shaw tracked down to let his grandmother Hilda Wright sit on for her 102nd birthday.

Now Highbarn Motorcycles is selling this one off R1, with special Valentino Rossi livery and signed by the man himself and you can find it on ebay.

The R1 is being sold at the pricely sum of £ 25,000 (around 29,100 euros or $ 35,500) and has only 291 km (181miles) on it.

The price is pretty steep, but this bike along with the Riders for Health R1 will both become collector’s item next year when Rossi moves to Ducati.
