While that little Elsinore is certainly a nice bike and the seller knows his stuff, if I was throwing that kind of money (7k-10k) into a vintage bike I reckon I could 1: find one that doesn't need "de modifying" (illegal swingarm for pre 75), 2:find a bike with better investment potential and 3: find something a damn site more interesting than yet another Elsinore. As nice as the bike is, it's still only a blinged up Elsinore.
