Going to be cleaning house.I will be selling almost everything. I want to make a fresh start.I will be getting rid of my '85 radberry RL-20II, turquoise & Mint '87 Haro Master, unfinished chrome General Osborn Pro, Acs 55 stem, black Peregrine HP-48's with Peregrine HP-48 tires. 1st style Haro flip up fork pegs, some used Dominators, Some Nippons and levers, and a bunch of miscellaneous stuff. It just hit me today on the way home from work. I am not really sure why, I just want to clear it out. Has this ever happened to any of you? A sudden need to purge? I can't really explain it. I got home from work and started taking pictures of all my stuff. Putting it on Ebay is a drag however. Uploading the pics and designing the layout really took the steam out of my sails.(and sales too!) I plan on re-evaluating what direction I go with this hobby. I might try recreating bikes I had as a kid instead of the ones I wanted. I had a Team Murrary X20R, early Schwinn Predator, a pink Skyway Street Beat, and a 86 Haro master.

That is exactly what happened to me also. Ditched all the bikes I thought I wanted. I now own all the bikes I had as a kid....am currently working on an 81 Z as I always had Camaros. Next will be an 87 KX 80 motorcycle. I also have my guitars...yes I am 12 in my head.

YEah, that is too true. I pretty much want my childhood bikes as well - the rest are extras that are nice to look at and have, but do not have that same feeling that the childhoods do.

I'm currently unloading doubles (except my Chrome GT's). Sold 2 master f/f's, a fst f/f, bashguard master frame only, currently got an american ts frame up for sale. Next on the block is a 85 CW Cali freestyle, complete, survivor i think. Maybe an CW cruiser...its liberating...good time to sell now too...my stuff has gone for good cheese....

I'd be VERY interested in your Master....I need a "1st bike" to get my collection going.

I'm very interested in your Radberry 85 RL20II. I sent you a PM.

I'm parting out the one old FS bike I had around here, leaving me with just the old Powerlite 3-bar as far as old BMX goes. That one I'm keeping; I built it for my wife but she likes her MTB better after all, LOL. But i like riding it once in a while and you don't see those too often.

And I'm keeping my new-school T-1 Ruben UNLESS I run into a nice old Holmes or some other mid-school find like that. That's about the only thing I think I'd rather have; I like my Ruben a lot though and I'm not afraid to get scratches on it.

I'm not so much in the collecting mode right now, but of course I won't pass up a score if I run across it. And I'm still always looking to see if my old Trick Star surfaces on eBay, out of someone's garage, basement, whatever.

Same here. I'll soon be posting my chrome 86 RL 20II, White 85 PFT, white 85 Trickstar, and white 87 PFT team model on the Bay soon as well. I love the bikes, but I need to clean house and begin anew. PM me if you're interested in any of these before I ebay'em.

Do you still have the radberry RL22 for sale? - Matt mtromboner@yahoo.com

I'm going through that phaze of selling and re evalutating my situation... I'm going through the process of looking through my BMX magazines and selling the doubles..
Also selling a 2003 Nyquist Haro...that on Ebay for a for more hours..
Just trying to get rid of stuff that I just don't need, and never will... Why do I need doubles of a magazine? Why do I need a Haro Nyquist that i'll never ride? So it's going... I won't miss any of it either.

I hope you're not selling everything because u "NEEDROCK" wink.gif lol, Seriously though, I think we all eventually get to where your at. U just have to find ways to keep the enthusiasm alive! And rebuilding something u had as a kid is a good way to do it!
