    Yeah I know

    But the Militaire was pretty close to the Daimler as in they were wooden spoke wheels not actually cast mags, though the Militaire was a composite wheel, cast hub, wooden spokes & steel rim
    Think the Bohmerland was the first true mass produced for the time mag wheeled motorcycle but earlier than the pic you posted stemming back to the very early 20s.

    As I said, Largely credited. Who is pushing up prices of old bikes? The 1\2 dozen rivet counters? Or the multitude of chaps who remember the chap up the road on the latest Z900 and want one now.

    How many people would be currently searching Fantic in NuZealund? And of them how many aren't searching for a twin shock trials iron?

    Anyhoo let's get back to the thread.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    I had a standing tm search for exactly that for years, the last of 'em were damned fine trail bikes.

    Thoughts? I think it's a bargain but you guys may think otherwise.

    I may be "a bit" biased..


    If you can make it on Kiwibiker you can make it anywhere.

    Bit too rich for my blood, but still someone will snap it up at that price. Mind you if I had the money there is an H2 on there for 34,500

    Get it. Now.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    How much are they new? Avon City Suzuki will sell you a brand new GSXR1000 for that price.

    Again. My point. You were searching for trials bike. Not what he was talking about.
    I once inexpertly rolled a K-Roo down a bank. Decided I needed a trials bike in my life after that but ended up with a Beta instead.

    He's the only one I've got.

    Around $40k brand new if I remember correctly. Very desired bike. At that price I won't be surprised if someone is already refinancing mortgage/ sucking bank manager's dick to buy it tomorrow.

    so are Husqvarna and Enfield ... and both have been in continuous production.
