There's a difference between owning them as a museum, and owning them with the delusion that you're going to do something with them one day, knowing that you wont. We both know people with a pile of them, doing nothing, and they refuse to sell them. That's their perogative. BUT, if they sold five or six, they'd have enough cash to pay someone to build one of the others for them. At least they'd have one on the road then. And someone more motivated (without an excuse..) can build the others.
Yours all run, or will shortly. I suspect if you had a hundred, they'd all be running at some point, not left to fester and rust away in a manky old shed.

My shed's not manky Dryballs has seen it - he can confirm !
Alas he didn't stay long enough to build one of my friggin scooters - he had to ponce off on some BMW with hand warmers !

You're just too lazy to do the one hour's work to get your bike on the road!!!

2 hours - got to fix the rear hub too !
