Re: 1918 Indian & Excelsior Boardtrack Racers on eBay

very cool stuff there. those 3 bikes for sale has to be worth a good bit more than people are bidding. is it low just from no interest.
and his garage is full of other interesting bits and cars. a pic of my garage would show a lawn mower and a coupla three junky motorcycles.

Re: 1918 Indian & Excelsior Boardtrack Racers on eBay

I know what you mean Nuk. My garage is the final resting place for every rare piece of junk any of my wife's local relatives can't store at their place. I thought having a three car garage would give me lots of space. Wrong!

I'm kind of surprised that a nice collection like this didn't go to one of the major auctions. If it was mine, yeah right, I would have avoided some of the eBay auction hassles and go to an auction. I guess the market is pretty soft right now.

Well, the Excelsior went for $12,500.00. Seems like a bargain to me! I'm a little surprised that the Indian only hit $9100.00 and didn't meet the reserve.
