    In 2003 I passed up a RD500 for £1495 at DK motorcycles.

    Now similar bikes regularly fetch £2500!

    How much interest would have £1500 earned in a couple of years, not a grand thats for sure.

    See, a 135mph 2 stroke 500 is a SENSIBLE buy!

    What other bikes do you think could be a similar investment?

    The best, if you could,ve layed your hands on one a good few years back, would have been a Vincent Black Shadow.
    I know of a chap in one of the villages near me who has had his over 40 years and it was last valued at into the 10,s of 1000,s[:0]
    A lot of the bigger Brit stuff was worth investing in in the 70,s-80,s but I wouldn,t know how a recent investment would fare

    caution…….does not play well with others

    Especially now with a mangled ignition switch! Pick up a new unit on Saturday though.
