Ymfb , thats a stunner well done
I'd think especially carefully around anything with a combustion engine as a long term investment. In my opinion the game is changing and I don't see anything but punitive actions against anything that runs on nasty fossil fuels, pretty pearl or not. I'd be interested to see the numbers of young people learning to ride motorbikes, they won't be cheap to own or run, and e-bikes (bicycles) will be the transport of choice taking the place of entry level motorcycles in a few years. I don't see the motorcycle business doing anything but contracting, and that having a knock on effect to people who own and take an interest in them.
Though I like wristwatches and have a pretty decent collection, I don't see them as being especially relevant to the next generation.. despite how many people keep talking them up because they're in the market. Smart watches will be more of the norm. Pocket watches aren't in so much of a demand, but were at one time.

I wouldn't ..... I will happily buy anything with two wheels and an engine because that is what (I believe) I know about
I get much more interest out of my bikes than any interest my money would make in a bank.
I’m 59 now any investment in bikes now would be probably for around 10-15 years, I often see young lads and lasses in their mid 20s around local bike shows and shops,so I think there is an interest in bikes within our youth.
They will be looking at bikes they can’t afford at the moment, which when later in life ,when they have disposable income ,they’ll be looking at their old objects of desire and find that they can afford to buy them.
