Default What do you think the Captain American Chopper is worth on the secret homepage ?

It looks like a very nice 1965 panhead replica of the C A bike. And the best bid was only $20,100 . So if you had some money what would your highest bid be ?

If I had it , my max bid would be $30,000
Only Waterkotte Harley knows the real price the owner wants .

I'm not going to speculate on a secret.

There was one company that built a lot of them.Not really rare at all.Besides the long narrow chopper fad has been gone for 20 years.Not interested at all,but if I needed a bike I'd go maybe $5000.

Whatever it is, I can't afford it and they won't take what I can afford.

Sweet bike but buying this would be like trying to press rewind on someone else's journey. I'd rather have a functional bike that I could create my own memories.

I wonder how many miles a day someone could tolerate on this thing compared to modern bikes.

not enough info in the ad. is it actually a '56 pan? of is it one of the pan relicas made by CMC back in the 90's?

not enough details on the build either. But I think they're at the top of the market at $20k for an unknown build.

If it was Fonda's bike, maybe 100K or more, an actual 56, I like I said above they're all in at 20k, a CMC, maybe 12-14
