You don't need to, you need circa 15 year old which are on the turn! R1's have bolted (already doubled or tripled in price) K1 GSX=R's as intimated above are just starting to head north. Always buy on the turn, or where you think it is at least.
No idea but 500 zx10rr s tells me they're rare from the word go... Sent from my SM-P900 using Tapatalk
Picture a crated r1m in 20 years time.... Tell me someone wouldn't pay for that! Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk
probably about 20k, same as they would maybe for a crated R1 from '98. Bit then it will cost 20k now and with the cost of money will be worth far less really
This was a bargain tonight - very nearly had a bid although I couldn't really afford to this close the Chrimbo (was going to stick £5K on as recent asking prices have been around £7K) Someone got a bargain I think. Ducati 250 Street Scrambler. Wide case. Lovely condition. | eBay
£6k for a good nick one Honda CX500 Turbo. Excellent condition. Years MOT, ride away, Investment | eBay
For a ten year investment get niche bikes like the scrambler, the honda cb1100, husky 701, bmw t90, ktm duke 690, honda crf250l. If they have something sexy today they will have it tomorrow too. On the other hand you can buy high power pre euro4 bikes, because when we get to euro5 specs all bikes will weigh a ton and will need huge displacement engines to produce decent power. And then come the electric bikes.
That's a lot of bike for your money. Don't know about an investment, but very good cheap fun. You could do pretty much anything with that.
I wonder what that cost new? I'd have said that the owner has had a very cheap 44'000 miles out of it.
If you mean the Ducati Scrambler, I don't think that's going to be very niche. Their aim is to sell oodles of them. I get the feeling that investment bikes are either things that already had a big wow factor in their day as new bikes, or were ubiquitous things that defined a generation but which have all now been crashed or rusted away. I'm trying to think of what bikes these days do define the young generation. Probably nothing. Computer games maybe.
The nuttier the bike the more will get trashed, therefore become rarer.... So I'll be holding on to my evo sp! Sent from my SM-P900 using Tapatalk
https://www.rx-motors.com/used-ducati-1198-doncaster-south-yorkshire-3604843 I believe we have that bike in stock. From what I gather, he was loaned it from Ducati UK. we have had a couple of enquiries where people have been able to say they can verify this. Nonetheless it’s still a super rare bike
As this thread started in 2013 and now 9 years down the line, the question's who got it right & who bombed out.
People who bought LC350's for £2500, had fun riding them are now selling for them £7000. Does that count?
