Any bike that is 20 year old is worth not more than it’s weight in scrap. However, nostalgia is a powerful thing, no harm in letting it guard that unused corner of garage.

Pretty expensive scrap to me anyway. Lots of bikes like that out there. My 05 is such a great cold weather bike that I just don't see myself selling it. Factor in that it's super easy to work on, is cheap to plate and insure and comes with a load of great people to help keep it on the road.....why sell it? Just because the rest of the world doesn't appreciate our C10's doesn't reduce my love for them. If you sell a C10 for $800-$2000, that amount of money isn't going to change your life much. I just don't see a good running C10 ever being worth less than $700.

The bikes were so far apart as far as technology I quickly lost interest in the Concours. The FJR is so far and away more modern, comfortable and reliable I don't miss the Concours at all.
