Not ebay but original 82 RM465

I'm not going to enter the ring over what's a good price or not for a bike on sale somewhere on the interweb, but one thing I have witnessed over the last year or so is that the arse has dropped out of the market.
12 months ago the bike below would have sold for better than 2k, yet now doesn't get a single bid at $1500
Some would say that it's a one off, or one of those auctions that slipped between the cracks and was missed, but I have seen plenty of good projects or actual ready to ride machines that have been passed in or sold at ridiculously low prices. What we are going to see is a bunch of people that will hoard bikes (rightly so) rather than sell them on waiting for better times and/or more money, much the opposite to what we sore some years back when people bought them cheap and hoarded them, waiting for a time when they get the time to restore the bike, if ever at all.
