You've only got yourself to blame.

You murdered it by disposing of her when you sold it. Shame on you young man.

Unless a naughty person has it in a collection but not taxed??
Could that be the case ?
Or am I missing something?

I'd like to think that is the case, and that it is hiding in someone's workshop/shed.

Some people have been re-united with their old RDs after a plea on the LC forum...

True but i'm not paying £4-5k for my old bike back.

I did come close to buying another a while back but lost the urge after looking at a few "mint" bodged heaps of st. frown

I sold it in '95, it was a sound machine, can't believe it went to the scrapper in only two years... maybe it's in a shed somewhere biggrin

That's the thing with bikes, they can sit in the corner of a garage or shed covered in general household stuff taking up little room whereas a car would be somewhat in the way.

The X7 I bought last year was in a garage for 10 years or so, prior to that it was only used for racing and is now in many pieces in my loft & garage roof space - probably last taxed in 1986.

Problem with the internet, is that most people can get an idea (usually inflated) of what their stored bikes are worth, and of course they were running perfectly before they were abandoned! The idea of a cheap barn find is getting highly unlikely now.

eta - My old 350LC MOJ575X is sorned last MoT'd August 2013.

My old one is still showing as on the road, which is incredible considering it was written off in April 1995 when some idiot pulled out on me!

H445PEX - if anyone knows where it is I'd love to see it again!

I lot of those bikes on eBay up for silly money dont sell Y2....the RD forum is much more fairly price...a few nice examples have gone recently for half of that sort of money.
