Mercedes Benz Amp Research B5 like new

[Baretl]

Hi. This 1996 bike is in immaculate condition. Has been ridden twice ever. Comes with original Mercedes Benz case and tire covers plus parts and all literature.
Any ideas how much to ask for?

To a Mercedes car enthusiast it's probably worth more, but I'd say (and that's a reaally rough guess) €2500,- and what any crazy person would give for it.
I say rough as I have no idea if these AMP frames are wanted/special BITD and today.

Personally I'd email Mercedes dealers and ask 5000,- for it. .
Maybe one of them bites.

Thank you so much for your input. Great idea, I'll do that. Cheers

These were (most likely) promotional bikes and given out by the dealers bitd to their most valued customers or raffled off.
The fact it's in this condition makes it special and should fetch good/more money then usual to the right person.

There are more knowledgeable people on prizes then me on the forum.

I'd suggest getting yourself on the big Mercedes forums and posting it up there. There will be some MB nutcases with money to burn who would love to have this in their collections.

There's a silver one in equivalent condition for sale in Canada right now for $2200 CAD. That's a pretty tempting price (as someone whose always wanted a B5). I think you could get more from the right Benz fan though.

Side stand Edit I like the Amp frames and linkage forks.

Did you ever get your hands on a B5?
Im trying to sell this Mercedes B5 in New York...

I could work with you on the price, and also do just frameset and matching rear wheel, if you'd prefer.
Where are you located btw, RM?
