i just saw the -6.00.

suprisingly its not as bad as youd think. with the shorter bars, most of your weight is on the back of your thighs.

Well. How many miles? How does it perform as is?

You are addressing a very minor market with a CB750 like that. If cash in the box is what you want - get it back to normal or let it go to someone who wants to make a cafe out of it.
...if you got the ability to act...

Stock forum answer is $3.50, or "tree-fiddy" if you prefer, but accounting for non-stock parts, missing parts, added sticker and subtracted comfort, today's "worth" is gonna be "two-n-uh-qwota".

Bike looks real clean and has low miles.If you were to put a real seat on it..............it ran good.........titled....... I would say it could possibly fetch a coupla K. Look in your area Craigslist for a better idea.

a good listing goes a long way to sell a bike.

you offered VERY little info and want to know what its worth?
write up a well worded add that lists the good and bad about the bike and you will see that people will respond better to the bike

find a stock seat to sell it.  NO one will take you or the bike seriously when looking to buy the bike.
lose the sticker on the side cover
what happened to the front mount of the fender?
where did the caliper go?

Good eye Jag. Didn't notice the front brake. I would get that operable before selling also.

(d/dx[3x^5] @ x=3)/2

Didn't notice the caliper missing, leaves to question other things on the bike. so if you sell it as is you probably would get my second answer divided by 2. aprox. 600 bucks realistically. but if you did everything that everyone has suggested you would be able to sell it somewhere to someone who really wanted it for around <2000

that seems like a fair price around <2000
if

brake gets fixed
get a stock seat
remove sticker
put signals back on
rear fender
brake light

$300
IF the frame hasn't been altered.  Then it is worth the added expense and work effort of undoing all the corruption that has occurred to it.

yeah, i know the stickers ugly. when i got it, the caliper was in a box. its basically junk.  i have 2 decent mastercylinders, and 1 rebuild new in box. i have the fender strut.
and yeah, i want an honest answer. the only reason it has that seat, its because the one that came on it was so old, and nasty from sitting in an open shed for years.

so it need:
-brake caliper
-master cylinder rebuild
-front brake line
-seat
- and the intake boots are getting fairly old, and starting to leak a bit of air.

It Has:
-Brand new battery
-New ignition
-Dynatek igniton
-totally rebuilt carbs
-brand new chain
-new stator cover gasket
-transmition cover gasket
-shift fork seal
-Brand new air filter
-Brand new Pull throttle cable
-Brand new Push throttle cable.

its not a bad bike.

From what I've seen from my area of Wisconsin...
$400... maybe $500... Mostly becuase of the stuff missing, the lack of seat, signals, no orignial headlight ear, handle bars and whatever else.
And it just doesnt look safe to ride.
