How cheep is cheep enough ?

I was just browsing for a winter project and found this that caught my eye .

Its too far away for me but ... its fair game if someone else wants a project .

OK , Closest guess ( + or - )

Let's bet who buys a round of "Hamburgers" next time we have an outing !   Roll Eyes

I'll go first ... "I believe ... it will sell for  $1,050.00"

What I referred to is the reserve price... the price that if no one bids over no one wins.

You have to remember that this is Kalifornia, and you can ride year around.
Nobody winterizes their bike.

KBB has it at $3600

I think the reserve price is about $2200 depending on how fast the seller wants to get rid of it.

Did you scroll down?


Mechanically, the engine has internal issues, the mechanic states it "rattles" when revved up, (see video) and also smokes much more than it should.

So , would a new cam chain and tensioner fix it ?


OK
1.   A new piston and rings
2.   Cam and tensioner
3.   I like the "Form-a-gasket" for everything but not Head Gasket.

When warm weather gets here , I'd think  that bike would be an easy $2,200.  Smiley

Nope, I didn't.  I had no plans to bid.
