Thank-you,

Well, I sure wish i had bought a 6 or 7 thousand dollar restored, running, and complete vintage bike instead of the basket case bargain for 1500 that will now cost me well over 12 to complete.

If you are committed to restoring this bike, you should pay as little as possible for it. I cannot give you a value just some advise. I bought a 1971 Commando , basically an engine, seized transmission and a frame for less than 2K. Three years and 22K later I have the 71 Commando I wanted. They are much more money and work than you think and as Hankmark says you can find a running bike in the same category for much less. Just a heads up. Craig

Think hundreds, not thousands, if it has a title.

Prices for these bikes can be all over the place depending on who's selling it. It doesn't sound like a basket case so in my area they could go for anywhere from $1500 to $3 or more. Keep in mind it doesn't start so you've got some bargaining power on your side there. Guys around here want $1500 for rusty junks.

$0-$1000 depending on your passions and powers of negotiation.

Good luck! Remember, restoring a bike is about the journey...and it is usually on a toll road.
