Friday Auction Fun!
It's the last couple of days of the Mecum Las Vegas bike auctions...
This is tomorrows lot listing...
https://www.mecum.com/auctions/las-vega ... les/01/29/
If you had unlimited cash to bid one one of them, what are you having?
(you can look at the previous days if you like).
I'll have this one...
https://www.mecum.com/lots/LV0122-48977 ... t-tracker/
Probably kill me if I ever tried to ride it.

I know it's a styling exercise that's worse than the original Trident/Rocket in almost every way, but those stacked exhausts...

I think they can probably widen that net a bit.

Re: Friday Auction Fun!
I'll take this one,only because I had one the same colour in the mid 70s. They are wrong,though,it's a Z1A.

This is as cool as they come,so I'll win this one too.

Re: Friday Auction Fun!
Love the exposed kickstart gears. the tank mounted speedo with a big thick drive from the rear wheel and best of all, I've never seen a motorcycle with a dizzy cap before!
