One thing people don’t understand is when you personalize something, especially like this, you’ll never get out of it what you put into it

[@cleancutlawnservice1]

I am a car salesman and I will agree with that 100%. Even something small like rims and tires on a vehicle you will get ZERO more dollars for when it comes time to sell. As a matter of fact I cannot name how many times we have taken a trade in with rims and then were asked to replace them with factory setup before they would buy. You want value? Keep it original, take it to the dealership you bought it from for all maintenance and repairs and keep records with vehicle and keep miles low. That's all.

[@BlueLineChop]

free america yep. Same goes for classic cars. The more you “G” em out, no matter how much you spend on the rims or chrome or whatever, value goes down

130mph is not a fast bike in 2020. Some 298cc bikes are pushing that now with a few tweaks that you can get for under $2999. This bike is worth $1500 at most.

[@nrich5127]

A rat rod version is worth 1/3 the value of a 100% pure stock - your customization means a lot to you but nothing to everyone else.

[@Shakester71]

It’s a cool looking bike, but people who would spend $15K on a bike wouldn’t buy that one. It’s way too customized and would appeal to limited buyers. I would rather spend an extra $3K and get a new Harley Heritage Classic.

[@potatomatop9326]

Rick's son never ever skips hub day

[@SamiUddin13]

If you're into customizations, make sure it's something you can keep forever because if you decide to sell it will lose value. Customizations on any vehicle will lower value since not everyone likes the same customs. My favorite customs won't be the same as the next guy's favorite customs. So if you custom a vehicle and plan on selling it later on, make sure you turn it back to stock so you'll get more money back from it.

[@geoh1896]

130 was a fast bike in the 60's. Well over 200 is a fast bike now. I purposely rusted it, this is very highly skilled work? You don't weld things like motorcycle chain or valve springs. These are high alloy steels and they are not designed to be welded. This guy is just lucky he hasn't demasculated himself yet. (this isn't a real word). Most of the welds I can see do not even pass visual inspection, what they tell me is that he really just doesn't know how to weld. I would put his labor cost at $0. They wouldn't even let this guy into the the shop at places I have worked. BTW guys if you run into anything made out of rebar it is NOT weldable either. There is rebar that is weldable but it is very very rare.

[@dirtybird4976]

I love old school looking ratty bikes. Had a couple myself. But this guy was definitely trying to upsell his bike. "Fastest bike out there, and looks like nothing you ever seen before" I don't know about all that man. And it doesn't have an old Harley Motor like a pan or shovel. Which would have definitely upped the value. Cool bike but I can't stand people bragging. Everyone who has a bike that's custom usually says the same thing. I do like the chain as the sissy bar though that's neat.

So who know honestly 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@lnspector]

[@MikeBrown-ii3pt]

I agree that the "expert" is way off on his appraisal. I'm at the other end of the spectrum from the seller though. To me, that bike is worth about $500 tops. I've never been into the whole "rat" thing. If I'm going to spend $15k on a motorcycle, it's going to shine like a diamond!
