very nice, even got the sticker on the tank. Looks like it's not going to sell in this economy. One thing I find F*N HILL F*N LARIOUS is the fact that ppl seem to STRIVE on bikes that say "ALL ORIGINAL, NEVER CHANGED ANYTHING SINCE NEW" Oh ok, so it needs rebuilt then. And if someone says "COMPLETELY ENGINE REBUILT" ok, it's junkthen. for some reason ppl seem to think engines which have been rebuilt are junk when, in a good rebuild, the complete opposite should be the case.
3 years ago someone parts an ALLORIGINAL 1982 Maico 490. Just sat on the show room floor and was never used. So, after 30 years of a bike sitting it probably needs rebuilt. However, it wasn't even sold whole it was sold in parts. The engine alone went for $4k. I remember hearing the total sale that guy made was around $8k.
Anyhow, point at hand, a few years ago a 1979 Honda CR250 that was crated, never ran, all original sold for ~$7500 complete. Sticker was still on tank. But, whether it be the economy or the fact that someone rebuilt that engine, no one is upping the price beyond $3500. At least, that I know of since the reserve isn't hit. Anyhow, just a rant b/c I don't know, it's always seemed the case that if a bike had to be rebuilt it's junk but if you never fix anything on a bike it must be great when really it's likely just being run into the ground. Ppl seem to eat it up when you put that in your ad.
