Emissions and ABS requirements would put up costs of the bikes or rule out the cheaper models for dealers.
If you want to buy 20 bikes at a time there's still the china wholesales. |

I built one for a friend way back in 2007/8, a POR Apache. Even back then I think his was more like £700 delivered.
BOE inflation calculator says that £700 in 2007 is basically a grand in 2021 money: https://www.bankofengland.co.uk/monetary-policy/inflation/inflation-calculator
That's not even accounting for the current massive inflation spike we're currently in. ____________________ I am a bellend, I am a man of constant sorrow, I am a gummy bear, I am a rock. |
