Greetings all. 

Hopefully you are all getting some good riding in before the summer heat sets in.

In many areas it seems motorcycle sales have cooled somewhat along with toys in general, due most likely to massive inflation, ever increasing taxes, high mortgage rates and other variables eroding the market confidence.

What to do if you were thinking about selling a collector bike or two?  Enjoy them! Get them out of the garage and ride them. Some of us have bikes we will never sell – our forever bikes. In that case, who cares what the market is doing. 

Meanwhile, certain Italian and Japanese cars and motorcycles of  limited production numbers continue to increase in value, representing excellent investments. As always authenticity and correct numbers are imperative for an investment caliber car or bike.
