I'm in no hurry to get rid of it, heck I spent decades looking to own it. Just don't want to damage it packing it into my truck but I think shipping it would be the safest way to go than taking a chance at more scratches. Will have to watch videos on packing a bike for shipment. Appreciate the...

Yeah I was thinking the same thing, I should probably ship it back to Cali and get rid of it after the move. I figured the longer I hold onto it the more will come available then it won't be so rare but they really are. Thanks to forums like this we can stay up to date with each find... Every...

I purchased the bike for about 600 bucks and it needed a lot of work but now that's it's done, a long with my riding I'm thinking about selling it, had it for sale close to what I payed only because I needed the money but now not so much. How do I price this extremely rare bike when there isn't...

That sure is pretty and it's even my color but for the square tubing bikes I stick with the ones with an actual head badge vs the cheap looking sticker. Never liked those stickers but isn't that how all bikes are labeled no a days... With a stickers, are head badges a thing of the past? Anyone...

And another Raleigh Alien Spotted, so glad mines didn't sell when I needed the money. The value on such a bike will only increase as time will prove how rare they are. Sadly I've never heard anything from the last buyer of this hard to find bike. Sure woulda loved to see it assembled but I'm...

Not a single one of ya are looking for a Raleigh Alien? They are out there... Here is the latest find, younger and prettier than mines. https://www.mtbr.com/threads/1993-nishiki-alien.347140/page-2

Lol I wish they were everywhere, congrats on such a rare find. Folks here did believe it was a fake bike. All the information I found on the Raleigh alien is on this thread and on mtbr.com site under the same name... Miggy Mann. Not a whole lot of info out there.

That was the halfway point, on side B it starts from there to end then the first part of the mix, I didn't make the mix, I'm just a proud owner of old records.

An old school mix on my one of a kind white JVC QL-5 (the saint) hand painted by yours truly. A great mix to help keep up the pace.

A would say the Raleigh Alien would be the mtb to own... If you can find one. You might have better luck with a close encounter of the 3rd kind unless you've got lady luck on your side.

I guess you never really believe untill you see one yourself. I've seen 3 so far. Mines is one of two that I've seen in the states, this is a UK bike. Made in Nottingham England Extremely rare in America. 3rd one I saw was sold in Hungary just a week before I found the ad. Last few pics compare...

The scary part is that scammers usually work in groups, when one comes up with a better way to scam folks... They share it. I belong to vintage Audio forum and folks there have also been scammed and scammers banned but like I said... When there's 1 there's usually a few more watching and...

89 Raleigh alien, 1 of 2 seen in the us with more in the UK EXTREMELY RARE, in 32 years I've only seen 3, one in California, mines in the heartland and the one sold last year in Hungary. Pic 3 and on show mines and the UK bike to compare splatter paint. Non bike related would be my 1940s...

Wow this might be the place to get more info on my Raleigh Alien, it's a late 80s Nottingham bike with the Worsop serial number. I am not a bike guy, I've learned a little bit here and there. This is a special production bike built after derby internal aquired the nishiki brand. From what I've...
