Parts Bike, if interested.

I found, on CL, a 650 Max. not to far away from me. Looks like a good parts bike. I only need one or two minor things off of it. My wife says that I can not buy it unless I can get my money back.

The question....

Is their enough interest in this bike from fellow XJers for me to haggle with the guy and go pick it up?

If I get enough interest I will go pick it up and list the known good parts.

What y'all think?

Parting it out on ebay:

Tank: 50-100

Headlight, bucket, ears: 30-50

Motor: 200-300 Since it doesn't "rud" more than likely closer to 100 if not just scrap metal.

Carbs: 50-150

Rims: 30-50 each

Exhaust: 50-75

Frame: 100-300

So, just from those few parts, you have your money back. It all depends on how fast you want to recoup your money.

 

$500? That's a lot of money for a bike in that condition. Offer him $150.

 

Sorry, I was assuming that he would offer significantly less.

Heck, I bought my Honda Nighthawk, that was complete, for $500.

D-Lan. as Maximum suggested go in very low, with backup information justifying why you think it is only worth what you are offereing.

Good Luck.

 

there is no way i would give him $500 for that..... $200 at the most....and yes you will make your money back no problem....If you do decide to buy that bike let me know right away....I could use some things off it..

 

I bought a running 920 Virago a few weeks ago for $250.
