You had me at "Mike Hailwood Ducati".
Although I have always wanted to ride a Morini 3-1/2...

I want a Biltaco and Morini, also 888/851 and another desmoquattro (probably kitted 748) and Hailwood of course... I only left out RG and VF cause I already have those

Damn.
Whoever built that collection, it sure looks like they got to live the dream.
Just own any neat bike. Not deciding "should I go with that or with that" but just doing without that noise and going with it all.
Surely, a choice of lifestyle that has it's own downsides, like bikes going bad from lack of use. Unless they had enough friends to help out with that, of course.
But still, collecting half a hundred bikes of different ages, that's dedication!

If I were that guy I think I might have gone with an auction house. Hand over the bikes, go home and pull the blinds and pour a beverage, accept check from auction house after the auction, go to Disneyland. This guy is apparently about to have a 'craigslist' experience exit interview with every one of those machines? Good gawd why do that to yourself?

See, they always gotta throw that "no dreamers" in there to try & keep me off their trail. Probably way down on the rarity/value scale but the cb1100r is the one that calls my name. I always loved that moto morini named a bike the 3 1/2. That's pure class in my book.

15 years ago I was a delivery boy, and there was this chick riding a morini 3 1/2 that I used to see riding around town every other day .... sigh...

A Morini 3 1/2 came up on the local CL here, I almost wet my pants. Clicked on it, it was a photo of what used to be a Morini 3 1/2 but what happens when you leave it chained to a tree in the woods for thirty years. It'd become a Moroni. Guy should have just thrown it in the dump.
