The original owner should be fined that amount for using it as an ornament rather than what it was meant for. It’s verging on cruel
From that linked article: "I would hope that whoever purchases this bike has no intention of putting it back on the road. While typically I believe that motorcycles are meant to be ridden, this particular one has become a time capsule, a nearly perfect example of what this model looked like when it was new. I hope the new owner continues the tradition of displaying it in their living room because a bike this beautiful deserves to be shown off in a place of honor." What a load of bollocks, I hope whoever buys it tracks it .... its bike, its not Mother Theresa !!!!!
