Can't believe I'm thinking about this, but I am contemplating what to do with my showgirl 350X. I created it about 20 years ago, and it sits in my shed under cover, and no body sees it. Over the years I have taken it to car shows many times in the truck. But I have not done so in a few years. I want it to be seen, in a collection or in a Honda dealership maybe.
I sometimes wonder if a dealer would trade a new bike for it? Then they could show it.
I would sell it to someone with a legit ATC collection, or a motorsport museum of some sort.
What do you guys think?,
I have 2 go girls also, I would keep them. But I have lost the desire to ride over the last couple years. Its sad.

Sorry to hear your contemplating letting your machines go. It's a good time to sell though as the demand is high. Lets see some pictures of these girls!

It will take a special buyer. Value is in NOS,OEM. Zero aftermarket parts.

I agree with atc007 - original OEM will command the highest dollar.

I would NEVER do it,, but the sad thing is I could get alot more for it by breaking it apart and selling piece at a time. I had a NOS rear fender I sold a couple years ago for $2000
I can only imagine what I would sell the fuel tank for.
Its not about the money, I just would like it to be seen instead of sitting under a comforter.

I have started to sell off SOME stuff. 100$ for 2 plastic frame caps I bought for 2.22$ each, 11 years ago??
Sold 5 sets of those, wish I had a hundred of them!!
600$ for a used gas tank?? 600$+ for a headlight?? 600$ for 1 of my 6 NOS 86 200X kickstarters??
If guys are paying that much money, I cannot see it getting much higher. A whole ATC can be bought for a kicker and a headlight....
As well as a few other parts that are bringing 500% - 1000% profit.
Facebook has brought about another huge wave of new buyers, who knows how many years this will last as the hybrids become cheaper and better.
I held this stuff for over 10 - 15years, the time is right for making some profit IMHO.
Then stuff the profit in Crypto and triple your money in a few days if you know what to buy and sell... :D
