Added a poll for those forum members who would like to remain anonymous.

One member PM'd me and said they have 15 in their collection, but didnt want to post due to thefts in the past.

it expensive hobby to own many bike very hard to keep running . how many bikes can you ride? It is time to sell your toys.
time to buy a house.

home is better investment than collector bikes.

I bought a house back in 1998 when there were still standards in place like credit checks and proof of income.

The black Dio AF28 has around $5500 into it before I lost count. Price doesn't include shipping from Japan and Europe for a lot of the stuff, and doesn't even begin to take into account what labor would cost.

wheels and tires $550
disk brake setup $370
suspension $550
oem panels $1100
cylinder kit $270
motor carters and crank $450
exhaust $400
transmission upgrades $400
electrical $200
fuel tank and pump $220
frame $300
intake and carburetor system $250
seat $100
gears $170
nuts and bolts $100
bearings and seals $100

No one care how much you spent on it. On this thread it is about how many and what you have.

I was merely correcting vdub's estimate on what a Dio is worth. Seriously, it wasn't an attempt to brag. I'd love it if they cost a fraction of what they do.
