Hi, n00b here again,

Not that anyone buys these bikes as an investment, especially if the point is to ride the hell out of them, but what't the deal with limited edition bikes like the Millennium and the Stripe? Resale isn't that much of an issue to me, unless I want to get a new one sometime later.

Sorry to be such a noob, and thanks for your patience and advice.

not worth as much as my carbon fiber...

249 of 250...

Seriously though, it seems the value is more sentimental than anything.

My thoughts..

...and the carbon fibers aren't that much either. My 205 of 250 ( I like it that all three numbers are the same ) I had mine semi-advertised locally and didn't have the first hint of a bite which suits me fine. I plan on putting about 1200 miles on it this weekend going to AHDRA in Bristol Tn.

Chase is right, more sentimental value than anything. Also the fact that I'd hate to let it go for less than half of what I have in it.

Hopefully one of the kids will end up with it.

In 30 years... it'll matter.

But that won't buy you a cup of coffee today.

Just enjoy!
