Agree but sometimes I walk in to my garage and have pinch myself to see if its real, l have my own private museum , and just looking and sitting on them does it for me
In all fairness I don't have any pension having worked for myself most if my life , so there is method in my madness

Hey bitsa its never to late, just look at the price of sandcast and k0 in the last 5 years, they have trebled in price, even if i only get back what i put in on my bikes it is still a good pension and i am enjoying my pension right now by just having them to ride and look at

Thanks for those words.It is too late should have done it back in the late 70s, for one I would not be hitched and I would have spent all my money without a care in the world.I think if I can find my old bike or another frame she will stomach that cos its my 60Th soon and I told her what I want much to her dismay.It ain't Vegas was it !!!!! By the way will the parts continue?Already starting to be hard to find and silly money.

Post by: K2-K6 on July 18, 2014, 11:36:52 PM: After the straight rip off the pensions industry has made of most people's cash over recent years I don't blame you at all Pete. And at least it's in your control rather than someone working anonymously with somebody elses money, taking a ridiculous commission and never even having to meet the people they've ripped off.

What could be better than something you can see, touch and ride about on while they appreciate. Believe me , even if you made a loss on some of them it still wouldn't come anywhere near what comission and ongoing charges take out of pension schemes.

Post by: UK Pete on July 18, 2014, 11:42:00 PM: I am quite content with what i have done having said that some of my bikes are not really worth much , i have also invested in NOS parts now thats a no brainer to me, they will always be worth good money
