yep, they've been spamming Craigslist in every city. I scanned the list & pics and saw some interesting bikes.

I might go down to the inspection day and see how the RDs look in person, and that YR1.

Hmm, out of "180 bikes", it's mostly twostrokes in the CL ad pics.

What does this mean?

Went to the auction last weekend. When I saw a non running R5 with no title go for $1400 and a stuck 76 RD400 (description said it turns but it didn't) with missing down pipes, airbox, and stator cover go for $2400 (good sized dent in the tank too), I quickly realized I was just there for the entertainment value.

There were three H2s. Two went for well over $8K and one went for over $11K.

Haven't seen as many old bikes in general lately, compared to two years ago, for sale on Craigslist.  Bikes go up in value, currency goes down.   :twocents:
