Is it possible they are now commanding triple what they commanded then? Possible, but at the end of the day, they're still not worth it. There are still far better C&V touring bikes out there for lower prices. And there are far better new touring bikes out there that are close in price to the $800 the owner of this "valuable" Alyeska is seeking.
