WTB: Ariel Atom

Just seeing if someone might know where one is. If it is the one I buy and you put me on it, I'll throw some bones your way.

My only preference is that it has to be the 300hp version.

Thomas, just get my '425' version and quit screwing around.
The M400 is just as fast and has a roof.

Can't track a T-Rex... But you can pack an overnight bag... You have to weigh the options!

I agree, The noble is one serious machine. It will eat the atom alive.

+1. I've driven a Noble, just a M12[sarcasm], at the track and it's a serious serious weapon. The allure of the Atom cannot be denied but if it starts to rain or you want to go home then you're stuck like chuck.

If I was going to get a Atom I think I'd go serious and get a Gixxer 750 track bike.

I really wouldn't go that far. There's something undeniable and unmatchable about the Atom. Although the Noble is a serious machine, it's not a straight comparison to the Atom and certainly wouldn't eat it alive.

I meant on the track, the atom accelerates to 60 in 2.9 seconds, extremely quick and nimble but I'm not sure how the atom operates on the track, I reckon that the Noble would have the upper hand.
