Just "asking prices".   It's why we make offers.    No one ever pays a price with "-995" on the end!

Uhh, if you don't ask, you don't get.  ;D He *may* be decimal challenged, though..

A very nice assortment of rare and beautiful machines. The price on the ultra rare Laverda SFC is jaw dropping.

Only current owners of primo Eldorado or LeMans 1 owners are happy to see these exorbitant asking prices.  :drool

While I like to see prices like that, I have to wonder if they will hold for the long term. These are bikes we liked as teenagers. In another 20 years, the bike of choice may be a Kawi 900 Ninja from 84 or so, old bikes like this could be worth a lot less.

Who knows. I enjoy mine for what it is and ride it regularly. Am always amazed with how stable that thing is at speed. But those Italians had their head up their arse when designing that fairing. it obscures the gauges while riding, you have to look through the windsheild to see the gauges and idiot lights, and the curve of the fairing does zippo for wind control really. All it does is keep bugs off the gauges.

Still love it though.

The Wixom fairing on the Ambassador works good, except when it's raining and the rain hits you right in the crotch.  ::)

Prices on the Guzzis seem ridiculous. The SFC is a bargain compared to a real 750SS Duck…
