That's my point

You put so much into it but yet resale is so low, it's the nature of the beast so why get rid of it.? Just to start all over again?

I have just as much fun building them as I do riding. and I gave it some thought last night. if and when my fathers old 47 knuckle head is passed on to me ill never sell it. so I am very sentimental about certain stuff.

I'll never sell my '97, my first Harley and has been with me through really good and really bad times. It's always been there for me.
