A friend of mine bought this new and sold it to his brother. He rode it a few years and put it in his house, where it has been for the last 22 years. I finally talked him out of it and I gave him $12,000 for it. I paid what I think it's worth because it is unmolested but for the handlebars and the battery cover which was an nos '72 blue cover that he painted badly. I'm going to clean it up, have Charlie do the crank and ride the crap out of it. The one I had was gold but I always like the purple.
