I would recommend finding sales for comparable NSR's. Those bikes and RG500/RZ500 can easily command that kind of money. Had a very clean RG500 and had a similar issue. Good luck.

It’s in your best interest to put a realistic value on your bike for instance purposes, at least as far as ICBC is concerned. Your premium will be based on your declared value not its actual value. But ICBC will only pay out its book value at best. So, if you declare your bike’s value at $20,000 but it’s really only worth say, $5,000, ICBC will only pay out that $5,000 even though you’ve paid premium based on $20,000. Now, I have heard that private insurers, on the optional insurance, will pay out the declared value at best, but I have no firsthand knowledge.
I’ve a pretty nice ‘75 CB750. It’s worth a lot…to me. To the market, $6,500 probably. Makes no sense for me to value, and pay premiums based on $20,000. ICBC would only pay out that market value…at best

Good Day All. I have a 1986 NS 400R in absolutely pristine condition. On collector plates. ICBC has informed that they will only insure it up to $20k in value. I want to put a $30K value on it for collision and comprehensive.... I don't want to be underinsured in case of fire or theft. I have tried both Haggerty and Echelon, both have denied me also. Does anyone have any other ideas for higher valued collector bike insurance?

Our buddy Murry at Modern used to grind rotors - not sure if that's still the case or not.
Hey Dave, Did you sell any of your bikes?

Package Express in Sumas have been all stars for 25 yrs. They even kept a package for me for over a year, no charge, during Covid lockdown. I know that Sumas is considerably out of the way for most here, but it is literally 1 minute walking g distance from zero avenue in Huntington.

We had good service from the two stoners that ran The Mailbox in Lynden. Good guys to deal with.
A little weird but good guys.

I reckon the businesses in Point Roberts, if not thriving, were getting by. The Canadian dollar has been low for a long time and those businesses survived. Now, with the political climate, the unknown of extra charges on goods going either way across the border, and the unknown of how you’ll be treated by either border guards, has caused Canadians to avoid Point Roberts like the plague.
Other border towns that rely heavily on Canadian shoppers at least have American customers. Not the case in Point Roberts.
In any case, my reason for posting this initially, was to warn members here that may have parcels heading there to beware.
