My dad bought me and my brother both brand new 1982 XR80's for $650 ea. If you find that same 82 xr80 today and it runs, it will still cost you $650 how's that for inflation.

Are you saying that there's no inflation involved in this particular case?

I'm thinking the resale price of that held it's own pretty good... 30 years later....

Another way of looking at it... "you get what you paid for".

NO, inflation is excatly what I am saying is happening.
