What's the worst of it all is that if indeed these bids are correct, then a handful of people with a. enough brains to make 65k to spend on toys and b. the time to pursue these toys at high dollar auctions, failed to be able to conduct research or even to know the difference between the genuine article and a repro. That's just too bad. It also doesn't do much for the "industry" as a whole, to produce repros in a disengenuine manner. <br />JaredAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2202817742529020927.post-2139747279212852662009-05-25T10:32:55.719-07:002009-05-25T10:32:55.719-07:00I'd put the $65k on a Vincent too.

Not my idea of how a $65K race bike should be put together. Call me foolish, but for the money, I would take a stock Vincent over that thing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2202817742529020927.post-36591155339351316482009-05-24T15:03:31.032-07:002009-05-24T15:03:31.032-07:00Nice wee Trump, I agree it doesn't look like somet...Nice wee Trump, I agree it doesn't look like something that had been seriously modified for speed. Especially when you compare to some of the rare survivors you see. Seems that the aesthetics weren't as important as performance and rightly so, the worked show bikes were another story. Price does seem a bit steep. They say god loves a tryer When you tell the story like that it does seem a bit fishy. Interesting reading though. Thanks, Mat.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
