no its in the right section. As far as value just as a bike we would have to know a bit more. Frame material , parts list, condition. As a collectable evil , 1970's, novelty bike, its hard to say , for me at least. Myself I like it and definetly $150 worth of cool right there.

Sure, it's worth $150 as a collectible. A friend of mine is selling off his collection of '70s Knievel toys and collectibles. You wouldn't believe what some of that stuff goes for.

$3.50 or whatever the market will bear.

P.S.: I wouldn't base value on a generic knowledge that Evil Knievel items are popular. About the same as saying all VLW's are valuable because some of them are.

It's collectable if you're collecting a bunch of low-end bikes with hype attached to them.
