Get em while theyre hot
Ex UK, now in Adelaide. LC250/350. DT175. Shed full of sh1t in the vague form of dismantled rusty RD’s and RZ’s.
Re: $1495.......
The 350 barrels would have more hope but I doubt it - good luck with that.
But it is great to see the interest and the prices are holding up. I'm still amazed with the interest shown on Ebay et al for RD stuff and particularly LC stuff - and the prices.

Re: $1495.......
LOL.
Agreed the 350s had more chance, not many people would pay over the odds for a cc that many believe are just paperweights.
I sold a set of wheels to a racer last week. While we chatted he was offering me 2010 money for other parts which was 'interesting', seems quite a few of the guys who havent bought bits for a while might be a bit shocked at what even simple (and previously plentiful) parts now command :/
Ive also had a bit of a running discussion with a few mates who wont buy parts when they see them, they later say 'i should have bought that blah blah'. One always looks at me like im mental when I tell him how hard its been to track down and buy NOS parts like OEM LC seat covers, headlight, loom etc. He still thinks those parts are available from dealers and are still easy to get new (nos) on ebay. Nope, those days are loooong gone...

Re: $1495.......
Yeah, its getting that way with any bike thats become 'collectible'. Same parts on a less desirable machine are worth peanuts. Sadly I seem to have a hankering for the same bikes everyone else does, I wish at times that my tastes were more esoteric 

Re: $1495.......
Didn't sell, quick lads, get a cheeky offer in....

Re: $1495.......
Damn my LC and RZ collection must be worth a mint... RZ motors (clapped out at 22k kms surely) are worth $2600 ONO?!?!

Re: $1495.......
I wonder how much my Brazilian is worth then. It is probably still the only one in Aus.
