Is this bike worth the money?
Came across this bike. Just checked it out in person. The owner is holding for me for a decision at $4500. Probably can negotiate down a bit more because of due tags.
This 821 has been sitting for two years at 13k miles. 8k miles service completed at dealership. Owes tags about $600.
Other than rat-chewed up fuel line (pop out at left side of the tank so most likely it’s a fuel line?), bent lever and bent brake pedals there is not other damage. All fluids need to be flushed and replaced, tires need to be replaced. Most likely belts need to be replaced as well.
I have worked on some bikes at home before but nothing too intense or pro level. I really want to know if it’s worth the time and effort to get it running at this price. Thinking about restoring it to keep it or to sell it after
Appreciate all the advice in advance!!!!
