Default I don't know what to do with this 62 Panhead! Pic!

I don't ride Harleys. I'm just going to get that out of the way now. I think I want to sell it and buy and different kind of bike. Sell it? Or hold on to it? I don't need the money but, I could put it towards a new bike. It sits in a garage and I have all the parts for it. It was taken apart to be painted some years ago and never put back together.

Does the bike have some sentimental value? If it doesn't and you don't want to ride it, sell it. An old bike like that takes a commitment. It will require lots of maintanance. Since it is kick only it will have to be kept in almost perfect tune if you are going to be able to start it. It has a custom frame so it doesn't have the high dollar value an original bike would. Someone who wants a panhead chopper will be willing to part with a fair amount of change to get it. You should be able to buy a new bike for what you get for it.

You won't get enough to get a 08 Gixer, that's for sure, but the motor has some value. If the parts in boxes has been treated the same way, the value will be way down.
