I hope he gets $350,000 for the damn thing –
(I've got bikes to sell, too, and would like to see a strong market ...)
But there maybe only one punter out there willing to spend a third of a million on a 10 grand bike and I want to sell him one of my
pieces of junk finely restored bikes.
If there is just 1 person willing ––––––––
Best case scenario: sell when you don't need to, and price high.
But hey, if you're selling, you want to see the prices.
Buying ? Wel then, any determination will be dependent upon
YOUR moth-inhabited wallet, eh ?

They left the engine stock so it could be serviced at any H-D dealership.

I won't be buying either one !
