Worth every cent I'd say.

The one in my shed is every bit as good as that one although I don't have the spares kit. I thought about $5k would pull mine up. Another $5K+ for a spares kit seeme a tad steep to me. I think the owner of that one is an extreme optomist.

I digress. When you think about it, you're basically buying a brand new bike. How much is a modern new motocrosser worth? 10-12 G I'd think. Plus it's not like they're falling out of the trees in that condition! I reckon' any bike of that age, in that conditiion (plus with the spares kit) has to worth that much.
And I know from riding the 414 that I bought, that had done little work, that they're streets ahead of anything that's had the piss riden out of them.....

Optimistic = Dreaming.
Absolutely wow, low hour bike still with spares kit. Worth lots but I am betting he will be keeping it at that price and reserve not met.  
There is always an issue (in my mind at least). Do you ride it so it becomes just like any other. Or do you leave it and admire it being a low hour bike, which seems like a waste.

that would have to be the most expensive one ive seen for sale i think  ,and a close look at the pics in my photo programme doesnt help ,its not that tidy when you zoooooom in

Does look a bit sand blasted. Seems that the bike has done more than he is saying. Still far from flogged.
Looks like about 6 months of competition use.

Nice bike but way overpriced. It's begging to be raced..would be a shame to leave it in the shed another 20 years.

Don't know about in the wide brown land but in NZ there are heaps of ex USA open MXers for half that $$$$ in the same if not better.

It's the same here marc, there are plenty coming in from the US at around 5 for a real good one.

Sold a clean one for $7000 earlier this year with half spares kit.

If its real clean with orig pipe, muffler, seat and plastics you could justify more but I don't think the're worth 10K just yet!

i know the owner and the bike and what he says how many races its done is true.
cheers

Proof is in the Pudding, didin't sell

Goes to show that it was over priced to blazers as it is a real collectors bike!!
