[QUOTE="greg brillus, post: 45098, member: 597"] Hi Martyn, thats only because the lunatics that own these bikes want way too much money for what they are offering. The bitsa Rap is worth 35k at most given it needs a total rebuild (yes i have seen pics of it). It's one thing to pay good dollars for a known high end machine with much in it's favour, but many end up paying way too much for machines that are what i would class as LEMONS with much money to be spent to bring them up to any roadworthy standard. This is where the learner buyer can get sucked in to a bad deal.......I hate to say it but i have seen it too many times. This is a problem with many collectable machines not just our beloved Vincent/HRD's. I think the average person out there wouldn't know the difference, but we as dedicated and therefore passionate affictionados of the mark do not take it lightly. Cheers......Greg. [/QUOTE]
