Well they are not hard to find.
There are some patterns I see across many of the sites.
Rare ones of limited run in great condition (Millennium, Carbon Fiber, Red w/White Stripe, Blue w/White Strip) only come up approximately once a year at the most frequent. We're talking garage kept with less than 10k on the odo - usually 4k-6k or so.
Stock ones are rare - almost everyone upgrades something or replaces something. I had some prospects for a while, but when you put the $30 intake+filter on it from ebay, it makes me not trust your ability to do what needs to be done to keep something in as good or better than stock condition. You cheaped out here, so where else did you cheap out? Or when you put S1/S2 headers on the X1 and then say it's stock...well...you may be able to lie to yourself, but not to me....so what else are you lying about...
The rare old boys like the RS and RSS people want $8k for a box of parts or close to $10k for assembled and running. I get they are collectors and want collectors pricing, so it's not what I want to do at this time.
The rest seem to be bikes that are all in the 20-25k mi range, where they want me to pay the same as a bike with 1-10k, so I kind of get the feeling I am paying for their emotional attachment to the vehicle or the 2023 standard price gouge on vehicles. Which while I want a Tuber X-1 and a Uly, I am not a sucker and I have the patience to wait for the bubble to pop and people to get more realistic. I also am not interested in paying for your creation. For example there is one that is very very nice, but simultaneously, it is an amalgamation of an X1 and an S series...which just looks weird to me. It's clear the previous owner had a style, but if you look at it, it's clearly neither and it's halfway to a rat rod, just add rust.
I was in talks with a smalltime stealership for one of theirs that needed some love, but between the fees, the salvage title, and the obvious slide damage on it, they wanted to charge me what everyone else cost to buy it (around $5.5k) so that conversation ended.
So here my search continues on :)
