Does anyone have an idea of what a used one would be worth?

Depends on how much someone wants one I suppose. I was offered a RS clubman a few months ago for £70, but didn't have the cash at the time.

If you could get £400 for one, it would certainly help the price of a new one nearer to £450.soulsurfer wrote:Does anyone have an idea of what a used one would be worth?
Some people will pay anything.. to have something that you can't buy.

42mm rs clubman...........£225 plus postage
44mm rs clubman...........£250 plus postage
44mm reverse cone........£375 plus postage
I can say however that normal service will resume in the not too distant future,as the backlog of work
is almost compleate,and only being hampered by the need to use some of the summer days to restore
his home to a livable state,
lets face it how many can say they have components hand made with such precision,care and attention to
detail, By The Late.....Great Ralph Saxelby!!!
NO!! HE's NOT DEAD.......JUST LATE

Just got back from Holland on an RS190 with 44mm RS clubman...Soosh's old engine in fact!
The RS Clubman for me acts like two different pipes...it'll pull really well and potter at low revs even in 4th, but then when you open it up, it really wants to rev. The engine's got an LI150 box in, but with this pipe the engine runs on further in each gear before you need to change up more like an SX200 box.
There were 16 bikes in our group, 6 of them TS1's all with expansions and my bike sat with them up front quite happily...to say I'm pleased with this set up is a massive understatement. Especially as from the chaincase side it looks totally standard, even the tailpipe looks the same diameter as a standard boxpipe...it's alchemy how this pipe works so well (it sounds fcuking awesome at full chat too)
Previously I had: RS190, 32TMX, AF Light flywheel, KRP2 pipe, LI 150 15/46
Now I've got RS190, 28PHBH solid mount, AF Ducati flywheel, RS 44mm, LI 150 15/46
The difference between the set ups wasn't massive...the noticeable difference was the Clubman seemed smoother and progressive, whereas the KRP2 had a violent powerband. Top end seemed pretty similar.
