Hmmmmmmmm, does it run, compression, select gears, the shocks/forks chrome okay - dampen? and how long is a piece of string?  ;) :D.

And is it a GS or MX

$1000, maybe :-\. But only if they throw in the trike as well  ;D.

On the other hand if it was red and a honda..................$$$$$$$$$$$$ ;D

I was thinking the same thing although I'm not into that sort of gear. I do know some silly money is pay for peddle cars and cyclops toys of the '40's/'50's - and parts ::).

This is another example that there's still plenty of old bikes out there if you really want them. Hardly a week still goes by before someone will tell me that ''all of the good stuff's gone years ago". Plenty out there if youre prepared to go the hard yards to fin them. If it's not locked up or damaged I reckon it's a $1200-1500 bike. Locked up-$750-1000. It looks pretty clean and original (bar the silly headlight) but the lack of chain might point to a siezed engine.

Hi Paul, dont get sucked in. I will pay $3.00 just for that headlight alone.

On a serious note. That is the correct headlight for one of my XR500s. If you end up buying that bike? which is obviously a MC/MX. Can I have first dibs on that silly headlight please?

That reminds me, Freaky hasn't got back to me about the TS 250 front wheel yet? Mmmmmm
