a few bucks here and there and your on the road!

:laugh:

5000 starting bid.Is this person insane?Jeez.bj

He paid $175 for it. $5000 is only a 6 billion percent profit. :laugh: A 1973 Z1 junk is not worth that. Oh wait 10/72 makes it a 1972. That makes a huge difference. If it was made 11/72 not worth nothin, but 10/72 makes it a gem.

Yeah, but it is a pretty crappy gem...still overpriced...perhaps $2000-3000 for that low series. The only things salvageable are the frame and motor...all else is junk.

Does a low serial number REALLY make that much price difference? The wife's 650 LTD is number 00140, and runs.

Woh. :ohmy: :huh:

IF it's a 1972 Z1, then yes it does.

Just needs everything replaced and it'll be perfect.

if i had a 73 z-1 in the 30,000's(which i do)and it was cherry(which it is not even together) but if it was decent...say 5000 worth in general...and i put the bikes stuff on a low number like that...and restored iot....would i be in the hunt for a 15000 z....or if i was big money....would i then have the bragging rights to special z???

maybe then it is worth 5000 to the seller because he knows it's rareness......

yea i saw this one yesterday as well, too much missing, no carbs at all, I'd give em 3500 for it.

Auction has ended, 1 bid @ $5500.... :blink:

Anyone want to bet on a Dr Pepper that the buyer backs out and this goes on auction again?....

Seriously, it would cost you another $5K plus to restore and without engine stamp numer, who knows... I guess at total restore you'd find someone will to cash out $10K plus...

Hell, you'd have to ask closer to $15K or what, no profit... naw.... maybe in Japan or elsewhere but I can;t see this pricing at all....

But hey, WTF do I know.... :blush:
