Whats a fair price for a 75' CB750 SS??

Not sure of mileage, but it's clean, it runs (all be it a little rough, needs tune and carb clean)

Thoughts?

At best someone here might be able give you a range, but that would vary some by region. But to even do that you really should post photos or something.

Are you a registered eBay user? If so, you can use the advanced search function to view only completed listings and see what similar vintage bikes have been selling for.

500-2500 in the Seattle area.
Titled, ridable bikes sell for more and arent on the market for long.

Around here about $300 for a project bike to $1500 for a very nice runner.

Agree with Flybox. $500-2500. The more original parts the better.

The exhaust and tank have not been available for a number of years.

I have paid $1000 for pretty much a basket case in SF Bay Area and was really happy to find it. The stuff that is offered for sale here localy for $400-$500 is usually absolute ....well not very nice. If the bike is stock, looks somewhat nice, does not have too much rust, and runs without engine noises, I would think $1500 would be a very good price around here.  A clean, original paint, good running bike, with most stuff not needing to be done is worth $2500 to me if I was looking for one.

You can buy my '75 750F for $129,370.  I figure a fair price is a dollar a mile.  Better buy now because it'll cost $200 more next week.
