Don't know if anybody here collects old m/c stuff but a friend of mine has a 1918 national motorcycle gypsy tour watch fob . I was presented to somebody with a perfect score. He is looking to sell it because winter hasn't been good. Doing a bit of googling it appears to have a good bit of history and value. Just thought I would put it up here to see if someone in the group has an interest. looks to be worth a few hundred bucks. You can PM me for pictures.

Seems like the challenge is to find the right market, looks very collectable. Those "pickers" on the history channel would probably admire it.

Try the guys (Dale) at the Wheels through Time Museum in Maggie Valley NC. I'm sure he is always on the hunt for vintage motorcycle material.

Thanks for the idea. I sent them an email.

I still have a 1971 Suzuki T-250 in pieces in my shed....Does that count?
