York swap meet 2025

motogrady
One of the biggest mid Atlantic meets.  
Held every year in the dead of winter by
The Potomac Vintage Riders.

Bull Pen Cycles I’ve been told went this year, and is putting    
up what they shot in 3 segments.  

Here’s the first 2.

thanks for the links

surprising being in York is the lack of HD ?
mostly metric stuff of little interest to me.

$1500 for a well used  ktm 75? lol. you can likely get a new one for the price now.

unfortunate i couldn't read the price on an early "40's indian.  
Inflation belongs in your tires.
Not in your grocery bill.

Just a different tribe.
Been there once.  
And you’re correct, very little orange and black there.
More like the white sneaker crowd.

1500 for a minibike?
In this day and age of Honda trail 70s bringing 2,500 to 4 grand, I believe it.  
If a guy wants a new KTM, now is the time.  
I hear they are selling them pretty cheap,
and they are moving.  

The Indian?
Haven’t a clue.  
I could never understand that scene.
Guy told me last week there are 2 Brough
Superior’s out there up for sale.
Older guy out in the mid west has had them forever.
I’ve seen one of them.
6 or 7 years ago he brought it to one of the AHRMRA events in town.
Was different, a quarter of a million dollar bike sitting out in a field.  Beautiful bike, I think he said the asking price is around $300,000 now.  Each.

I mean, $300k?.
You could buy 3 or 4 houses around here for that.

Here’s another quick one, this one put up by PVR.
A few nice ones.
I think there’s a chopper in the mix even.
The Rokons are pretty rare.  
I don’t know if that’s a maroon triumph or bsa street bike.
The Victor Special looks like a piece of jewelry.
If you are quick there’s a Bultaco Metralla.
Maybe a later model Maico. The red and yellow one.
No Greeves.
No Ossa.
And not a Montesa in sight.
