Not at the thought of ET going home , but because I want a Kuwie now and it'll cost another bleeding fortune... :'(

Title: Re: Et's on.
Post by: eddie kidd on December 29, 2014, 06:38 PM
10k...

Worth every penny...

I reckon he could sell for double...

But as he's a Multi Millionaire , I'd doubt he'd let it go...

There must be some celebrity type people who are or have been a member on rad...

Been done to death but I really like them,I have been thinking about one for my next build but finding a donor frame and fork might be tough these days....

I just hope he got a letter of authenticity with serial number on to prove it was the bike. In years to come it will appeal to even more Movie / Hollywood / Bike fans.

I've always wondered that. How does he know for sure it's thee actual bike in the movie? I read somewhere there was 25 bikes in total. Different paint jobs on some. There must have been more than one "Elliot" bike.

You could be right because he bought it from a bloke in Leicester so what was it doing over here if it's the original suppose there must be some provenance but Leicester seems a bit random !!!

The e.t kashabian story is a hoax

howie cohen confirmed   when he whas still present among us   none of the bikes used in the movie where sold to anyone

they came back  to the shop after the movie had been finished.

they where sold to local kids  and trashed to death.

It's in the guardian , sun etc  maybe sun bit dodgy but would have thought guardian did bit of research

Post by: DoubleD on December 31, 2014, 04:08 PM

If them frames went back to the shop and got sold with no record of were they went then i suppose anyone with a KZ1 could actually own one of the KZ1's from the movie. Now that's got you thinking. Ha.
Title: Re: Et's on.
Post by: DoubleD on January 01, 2015, 02:01 PM
That  whas part of the deal. all bikes  had to return to the shop   howie confirmed it also

An interesting read - thanks for posting it!  :daumenhoch:

Although I loved the film, I never wanted an ET Kuwahara but it did get me interested in the brand and when the Laserlite came out, that became my dream bike! :smitten:

Here's a sign I spotted in Tokyo the other weekend:-

I get the "No Parking" bit. But what does the rest say? Ps, I too have a Laserlite.

You can't go wrong with a Laserlite - what vintage is yours?

I can't read all of the kanji (the Chinese characters) but basically the sign says that it's a private space and any bikes parked there will be removed. Presumably by ET!  ;)
