I've heard it said before that the market for these bikes is not that well knownl enough to speculate on price, but here is really what I am asking.
What would be a realistic price somone is willing to spend for a bike if this size and vintage (whether it be Honda, Kawi, Suzuki or Yamaha) that is ready to ride. I think some factors like many of the new items and maintenance this bike has had, the fact that it is sound, runs very reliably and does not leak gas etc all are value adders. Since bikes which are reasonably complete, but require this usual maintenance sell for $5-800 on ebay I'll begin to do some math. Tires mountd and such + $200. Chain and sprockets + $100, Recover seat +$100, neack bearings +$50, battery +$50, exhaust +$200. So I think any bike with these items recently done should be worth $12-$1500. Labor is subjective, be we really did go above and beyond to make sure the bike is right, with every nut and bolt taken down, frame painted etc. I would say that is easily a variable of an additional $3-500. So anywhere form $15-$2000 is my take regardless of specific make or modlel.
