    Can you still find the bikes that were used to make the racers or are they all gone as well?

    They are few and far between, there wasn't a huge amount of them to start with, and unfortunately parts availability sent many of them to the scrap pile.

    Well I think this is going in the wrong way. Yes you may not have time for such adventures but what if no one made those parts that wear out in 3 wheelers? Intake boots, chain sliders, axels, and of course Tecate stators ect? Alot of people have reopened up alot of 3 wheeler help and parts. Make some frames just no serial number. Just my thoughts.

    JMO but any part made after the "golden era", when they were originally made, would dilute the product's that are already in circulation. Tricky Dick (Andy) has all of the serial #'s of the original bikes in his records so a 2011 TD Cagiva 200 WMX will not garner the same respect as an original. Anyone that owns one of these bikes realizes how rare they are and probably arent riding them anyway.

    You make a valid point, however it it was produced and marketed as reproductions it wouldn't effect the value of the originals, perhaps increase it by bringing more attention to their existence. Take the 32 Ford replicas for example... That being said, I realize the number of true collectors is relatively small and those that would be willing to buy a replica would be even fewer. The decision falls to the one man with the ability to make it and there are positive aspects to both making more and not making more and I respect your decision. But if I happen across a WMX I'm still going to ask again...
