Sit back and enjoy. So you own how many bikes? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uMZ-nZGM1Ew

Wow! What a collection. I cringe to think what it's worth.

I loved his comment..."I'm not a great Harley fan, but they make excellent coat racks" :rofl2:

Lovely collection, just amazing  :worshippy:

Hope he's got a spare oxygen bottle handy.

Cool collection, sadly no GSX1400,  a couple of nice GS1000's and GSX1100's. Just wondering if many 1400's made it to the US?

Im sure that the Duc 916 he had in the corner would be worth a pretty  penny,  along with a few others.  Didnt see a Honda RC30 in there  either.

Thanks for sharing that Grog

Awesome.

I've only heard of, I think, 2 x GSX1400's in North America - and one of them belongs to @Globalrider

The GSX1400 was never sold in the North American Market. (only Japan, Europe and Australia as far as I know).

I've only ever heard of one of two over as well, as Vlad says they weren't sold there. Which I've never understood as you'd think they'd suit their long roads & tendency to fit an engine twice as big as needed to everything.

Man what a collection! That would be a destination but he needs a much bigger place to better display them. Looks like to move one would need to move a 100 to get it out!
I only know of one in NA and that is mine! I'm a lucky boy! But it did take some effort to get it imported and registered here.

All the more for us.  :mwink:
Just thinking... if he has 240 bikes, that'll be 480 tyres.
If we say a tyre has a shelf life of 10 years, or 120 months, he'd need to be replacing 4 tyres a month, every month to keep them every bike usable.  :hat:
