The RN is up on Ebay - if Im going to fix the AJ something has to give! The RN dosnt get used like it once did and looking at in the pool room - well....
I know its been there before; Im hoping it will sell this time and I dont chicken out! ::)
-
lts funny how our taste change as we get older, Dave I am sure you will be sad to see the RN go to a new home, but you have had years of enjoyment riding it, telling stories about it and just sitting at home looking at it.
Its Time to let someone else have that same enjoyment. good luck selling it. 46m

Nice bike good luck dave
-
Can someone plz,Just recap on the difference of the RN and RH's.Thanks.Good Luck DT.
-
so whats it worth and then what do you expect to get
-
The difference between the RN and the RH is the engine capacity. RA were factory 125cc, RH were 250cc and RN were the open class 400-500cc ;)

excellent Doc 8) so how many spare RA's around OZ ? ;D
-
Dave,
don't do it!!!! Once it is gone it will be near impossible to replace for any sort of money. If you do sell it, I know there will be a tear in your eye as you watch the truck drive away with it.

No RA's in Oz Alison, only RH and RN's.
Gaston Rahier had the only RA i've ever seen when he visited here in the mid 70's, and that bike went back to Japan along with the jap mechanics...
-
Dam, that buggers that idea for a set then ;-)
-
Alison,
Check with Allen McArthy in Perth I think he rode one for Suzuki when he went OS.

-
Alison, I raced against Rahier on his RA in Tasmania but can only tell you what the back end looked like briefly ;D

That is one rare and awesome bike. Has to be worth 20K at least IMO. It craps me when I see much lesser & more plentiful road bikes sell for around the same money or more.

Yeah you're on the money mate, a very cool and rare bike. I think Dave would get more for it selling OS the way our market is

Problem is Johnny, our $ is too high. Very cool bike, would have it in a flash but too much other shit going on at the moment.
-
Man if only I had a couple of grand laying around :-/
-
hey 'O' i pm'd ya lets just keep this private...BTW!!!! if its only goin for 20k i'm lookin....but as per a discussion on here before startin an auction at 99c with rserve not met really means its not for sale...
-
One thing out of this sale, Id like to see she says in Australia.
-
Dave kindly let me carve a few laps at Nudgee on the RN some years back. It's an absolutely awesome bike to ride! The only part I'm not envious of is the decision to sell :(
-

In 2009 she got passed in at 16K,now with two days to go,we sit a wait. ;D
Market reflections are never consistant in the top end.Still good money,perhaps less buyers around.
Hope the AJS rebirth is going well.
-
Hey TM Man, dave is not a look what ive got kinda guy,get what your saying about $1 reserve but its just his way of selling.Dave has let me ride his RH and is a down to earth guy.
-
really nice unit, the heading in the add says Factory works replica, I think its a factory works bike (theres no replica about it- its the real deal right...)
Brett
-
Congradulations Dave,You'd have to be happy with that :)
-
congratulations Dave, But I do think the guy was drunk :P
-
congratulation Dave, But I do think the guy was drunk
dont think so..thats the price of a small piss ant modern car..sweet stuff all nowdays ;D
-
Yeah it's worth what it sold for.. far more collectible than any std production vintage bike.
-
Was the buyer from W.A, gold miner
-
I spoke to Dave this afternoon and he told me the bike hadn't sold.
-
why, ???
-
I spoke with him yesterday and it hasnt sold.
-
why, Huh
Didn't reach reserve.
-
It says reserve met on Ebay.. $19,999.99
-
I was watching and it met reserve as far as I could see ???
-
yes folks its sold - after 20 plus years of ownership. Im Ok with that and I hope the next guy gets the enjoyment I have had owning it as well.
All a tad sad really but you never "own" anything - you only rent it for the time its in your possesion.

Congratulations and commiserations at the same time. I prefer to believe we are merely custodians of these bikes.

Never a truer word spoken Dave :) i imagine it must be mixed emotions for you atm . The RN is an awesome bike and you will always have the memories of resurecting new life into it to all the great racing and CDs you enjoyed with it ;D
-
Wow, a lot changed in an afternoon since our chat Dave!
I'm in two minds on this.....sad to see Dave part with something he'd invested lot of heart and soul into but happy to see Dave get some much needed cash flow. We might see the AJS back a little sooner ;D.
I hope it remains in Australia and that the new owner doesn't hide the bike under a sheet for the next ten years. ;)
-
Bike will stay in Aussie - funny how it goes - had a confirmation of finding motor for the AJS so the gods must like the deal. Engine for the old girl on the way from California - right numbers right motor, happy days.
