Makes spending some of my hard earned cash today for some SpeedBleeders and some 90 degree valve stems seem like peanuts..... And to think I held off the PDM60 ($225 CDN plus tax) farkle. To those who can afford it, hey, hats off to ya......

Hear you loud and clear AlleyCat, always wanted an Oldsmobile W-30/4-4-2 but they are now priced out of this poor/destitute Retiree's meager price range! JSNS!

If it was Galaxy Blue, I'd take it.

 

[El Toro Joe]

Good thing I don't have a million dollars laying around...JSNS

 

[HotRodZilla]

The fact that anyone would pay that much for any motorcycle proves just how stupid people actually are.

 

[Geezer]

That bike belongs in a museum and that's probably where it will end up once the price drops.

I love the USA.

If somebody will buy it , sell it!

Or, anything can be bought with enough money!

As long as we're all having fun..... It's all Ok...

I'm just the opposite, I hate museum pieces. I once bought a 357 Coonan with the serial number 357 that had never been shot, by the end of the day I had ran a box shells thru it.

Same here, When I bought my Ducati 999 it was 6 years old and had 400 miles on it and had never seen the rain. When I got home, I took it out of the pickup and took it for a ride in the rain to work on completing the break in miles.

I don't know about here, but in the UK a lot of museum pieces are run on a fairly regular basis. The Goodwood Festival of Speed is a paradise of older racing vehicles, being raced, often by their original drivers and riders.

Oh, I did not realize that was Ole Blue. That was actually a historically important motorcycle and I hope it goes to a good home. I am not upset because I cannot buy it. Although it would be nice to have that kind of money just laying around.

Auction just ended. Bike went unsold at $250,000 with 37 bids.

Olds 442, metalflake blue with a Hurst shifter .... 35 40 years ago, barrelling down dirt roads in the SC forest .... with the lights off if there was enough moon ....

It's a miracle I'm still alive.

PS: Those are original rims in the photo. Color-matched to the body.
