when to you reckon the price of OS parts are going to stable out
i mean at the moment its going insane :shocked:
ive seen some unbelievable prices recently
2k for cranks :idiot2:
£300+ for pedals :idiot2:
grips £250 :idiot2:
skyways £250 :idiot2:
mx1000 £250+ :idiot2:
and f+f's are going through the roof
you looking at £500+ for a loopy ripper in resto condition
and not to mention how much a gen1 or vdc go for.
do we reckon prices will eventually start to drop or will they find a
limit and stay there??
i never thought id see the day when a burner would sell for
£500+ :idiot2: :shocked: :shocked: :shocked:

when the trend moves on , i mean you go to vdub show,s and everything is retro at the mo .
there a chopper se on the bay at the mo and is at £620 and that was this morning.
-
Can't see an end to it at the mo, and its only gonna get worse as more bits get snapped up :-\ :-\ :)

Me too, just got a few things left to get and I'm all done :coolsmiley:
I'm actually spending a lot more time undertaking full restoration of parts where I can as it's way more cost effective :daumenhoch:
-
how much is it all going to be in 10 years time??
-
restoration is were its at ;)
there will always be new lads n lasses wanting stuff ,we are all just used to it all .
stuff you wouldnt give £10 for today might be £30 in a few months,and this happens alot.

As long as I got my Kuwaharas I don't care what prices anyone else pays for stuff.

no i didnt replace the kuwi yet infact its one of the only bikes i havent owned since my restart.
ive had and built over 60 bikes of sorts but not 1 kuwi .
so i guess im not ready for one yet strange thou :)
and arrr the fourstyler never actualy touched one as yet ,a very alusive bike ;)

i really do hope it doesnt go the same way as the veedub scene
rare items being horded and then sold at over inflated prices
to people doing "cheque book" restorations :-[
-
I've managed to pick up some mint bargains, the Titan jnr cruiser and a Titan expert at quality prices :daumenhoch: Thanx guys :-*
I'm working on building a collection of all the Titans (every size) so if anyone knows of any more knocking around pm me. :daumenhoch:
-
It is getting to the stage now where Skyway Streetbeats & EZ Bars are fetching silly money, I remember a few years ago there was loads of them on Ebay :shocked:
