moe666 Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 When I was a kid growing up in the 50s the local shop had a 4 square Ariel, I was only about 9 or 10 but I will never forget that bike. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VocalNeal Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 You all can't be serious, what a heap of cr@p. Sadly yes it is, but it is a historic or classic piece of crap which makes it note worthy. It's a 50's rat bike 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Putting vintage crap in our living rooms? I would say 'yes'. My wife doesn't understand why I want to turn a couple old helmets into table lamps- when I build the next house, I'm gonna have the ultimate 'man cave' filled with old motorcycle stuff. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, its a classic bike thing! If I found it I would be looking for the owner with a cheque in my hand! Even though it doesn't have a tax disk or number plate. And I'd like one of these as well. And because there are only about 5 in existance, one of these. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spiritrace Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 What a beauty. My first bike was an Indian Chief. I have regretted selling it. That was back in 1962. I have had a lot of bikes since but the old Indian was my favorite and still is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The market is friday nights in chonburi. It may be there every friday for all i know. I would like to see that bike. I know I would have asked who the owner was and tried to buy it. I may have to make a run over there and see if it is around in July when I get back. Thanks for posting the photos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yankee99 Posted June 23, 2013 Author Share Posted June 23, 2013 For anyone interested here are the coordinates for the market 13°20'23.57"N & 100°56'58.19"E the market is friday evenings. I do not know if the bike is owned by a vendor but since it was inside the selling area i assume it is. I dont know if its there every friday or will be there again.

BradinAsia Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 You all can't be serious, what a heap of cr@p. One man's crap is another man's gold. This machine is easily worth $5,000 in the U.S., and $10,000 in Thailand. Once restored to showroom condition it would easily be worth $30,000 in the U.S. and at least double that (maybe 2 million baht) in Thailand. If this bike could be bought here for 200,000 - 300,000 baht it would be a lucrative investment. Call it crap if you like, even ignorantly, but someone could make a ton of money on this. Or just the enjoyment of restoring it, showing it at motorcycle shows and keeping as an investment. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
