Let's assume that Brian Bayless buys the exlusive rights to the "Sachs" name.
Which of the following has more "mojo"?
1) A well-used 1975 Sachs.
2) A 2003 RS-built 30th Anniversary Sachs
3) A 2003 Bayless-built (and painted) "Carlsbad" Sachs
4) A 2004 RS-built "Chester 3V" (e-richie really didn't want to retire, after all)
Extra credit: Which one is more "authentic"?
