Is this Superglide really worth $60,000?

[rastuscat]

That's what people don't understand about auctions.

Things aren't worth what sellers say. Things are only worth what buyers are prepared to pay.

Personally think he's dreaming, but if some mug will pay it, that's what it's worth.

Out of interest, if I was hoping to get 60K for something, I'd take the time to make the ad look attractive to people with a spare 60K, instead of those who can hardly read English.

By your own definition, I don't think he's appealing to the educated

[HenryDorsetCase]

I think its been for sale for at least two years. dreeeeeeeeeeamer. Plus his ad sucks. He comes across as an aggressive arsehole

[roogazza]

What's that old saying, "great boat anchor".

[buggerit]

Maybe he was a lotto winner a few years back and got sold an "investment"
Im sure his Mrs will be amused

[HenryDorsetCase]

we should troll him. for the lulz

[EJK]

Somebody enquire for a test ride.

I'd swear it's been more than 2 years. Chocolate fish for whoever finds the first reference to us taking the piss.

Almost $1 per KM!

I suppose if the front drum brakes have been re-lined, that would bump the price up???

Looking at the front lawn, wonder if he would take a lawn mower as part trade?

how about Mike Hailwood?

Ah that is awesome...

Yea now that i look at that auction it almost does seem like maybe his significant other is telling him to sell it...

Far be it for me to be the defender of Harley Davidsons, but this guy might not be as far away as we all think: http://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C373390

Mind you, that's 25,000 Euros for a mint one, so he's probably 10-15K out from what I can tell. Remember this monstrosity isn't a regular Super Glide, it's listed here: http://www.baggersmag.com/top-five-u...rley-davidsons as one of the most desirable used Harleys and to quote the article: Few examples of the original 1971 Boat-Tail Super Glide still exist, but those on the used market can command among the highest prices of any used Harley-Davidson manufactured during the 1970s

He's certainly not doing himself any favours with the ad though, that's for sure - poorly worded and crap pictures. For $60K there's a big list of bikes I'd be looking at before that one!
