I have decided to sell my 1vj I restored it in 2015 and it has been in my garage ever since,but am unsure of the values as they seem to be all over the place.frame and swinging arm plus other parts powder coated,tank ,side panels and mud guards professionally painted wheels original gold and in good nick.the bike has no run for three years so is none runner.
I do not want to to under value it so any help would be welcomed
Thanks mark

Re: Value
I Dont know about the market where you live. But here a running motor is very important. If it wont start you can instantly take 1000-2000 off the price.
So its worth while investing time in getting it running, even if running rough.
Otherwise I'd say you have done a quality restoration, so should be good money.

Re: Value
Ship it to the states and I’ll give you $1,500!! But seriously over here that could be worth a bundle if running.

Re: Value
Thanks for your replies
The bike ran fine when it was restored,so I think I will put some fresh fuel in it and clean the carbs.as you can imagine I spent quite a lot of money on it and tied not to over restore it.
Thanks again

Re: Value
Did you sell it Mark? It's a shame you weren't using it as you obviously put a lot of love into it.
