You could buy a good works bike for that in todays market.

As Firko pointed out with the crated bikes topic the other week, what could you do with it?  ??? You couldn't ride it. You can't tinker with it. Can't even rest your cup of coffee on it in case you leave one of those brown circles so it can't even be some fancy coffee table. :( Your mates are gunna get sick of coming to look at it after the tenth time. Somone's probably knocked off all the internals and no ones the wiser...... :D

As 414 said with a brand new vmx bike all you can do is look at it..
As soon as you ride it it's worth a 3rd of that and i'd want to ride it!

How could anyone buy a MX'er and put it away for 24 years without starting up ???. How could you so obvious live on a farm and not take it for a hoot ::). I feel sorry for the guy :'(. I hope he gets his 20 grand, Psychotherapy is expensive. Poor guy, he needs help ;) :D.

The same could be said for a Picasso painting. I have a bike in my home study and people that are not into bikes ask why is that there?, I simply say why is that painting on the wall or that pot plant on the floor? ::)

If I was spending that sort of coin, I'd rather a works bike with race history.
