Reckons it's worth a few $K. He does similar things with cars too. Weirdo.

oops that turned into a rambling brag, didn't mean it to, but he does impress me. His money sense outside of cars and bikes is for shit tho.....
That is a cool brag. If he's ever bored he can come rebuild my Dad's Farmall H.
