Would it be worth building a pair of IH x Yamaha bikes?
There'd be the additional cost of buying a second XJR1300, but you could split the design costs over two machines, and I suspect that would account for a significant part of the budget.
If the bikes are going to have an afterlife as a promotional tool, then having one in Europe and one in Japan might make sense.
Of course I've got your best interests at heart!

I was in Newcastle this afternoon, and took a look along Westgate Road. For those of you who don't know the city, it's got a cluster of motorcycle and gear shops.
Classic Motor Cycles had this very tasty cool Greeves scrambler. It was built for desert racing in the States, which is why both wheels are the same size. It's got a British logbook, and is road legal.
It's £4500, if anyone's interested.

Great to find a motorbike thread! Keep finding new threads all the time!!
I started riding in 2004 at age 34, following passing the CBT and Direct Access courses.
Bike evolution to date; Honda Hornet, Yamaha R1, Suzuki GSXR 600, Yamaha R1, Kawasaki Ninja ZX10R which is my current bundle of fun.
I am not averse to riding non sports bikes, so have attached this image of me on a Royal Enfield Classic 500, which was taken on my honeymoon in Goa India with Jules @Black Orchid in April 2013;
I will add some pics of the ninja once it stops pissing it down!! Here we go…..

Decided to check these out - I started following Grifters on IG. This is a collaboration glove they produced with Whiskeygrade.com. Bison on palm side with camo material, lined with suede. I will report back.
Looks like some cool gear, check it at http://www.griftercompany.com
