Considering Selling....

My 1982 GPz750 aka KZ750R1 Eddie Lawson Clone.

Just don't know what kind of price to put on it. I have an idea of about $3500. However, what do I know. I sold my Dodge neon a week ago and the guy didn't even haggle on the ask price. I knew I sold it too cheap.

The bike is new. Well as new as a 1982 Kz750R1 can be. I put some time and money in it. I know I won't get it all back. I'd like to have a Real ELR so the Clone needs to go. Even though it is a clone I reproduced it as close as one could get and upgraded a lot.

It runs good. Maybe a little flat on the carb tune but starts and runs good. i took it to the track and had some fun with it last September. New brakes, bearings, clutch, paint, K&N's and too much to really list. here are some pics. I'm going to list locally and mabe on trader. If anybody is interested let me know. I'll stick it in the classifieds here too with a best offer.

You've obviously put alot into that bike and it shows. Be sure you want to sell before you let go of it.

At least get a promise of a "Right of First Refusal". That way there may still be hope after you return to your senses.

Any ideas what I should put this on Ebay for?
I can't figure out what would be a reasonable amount to ask for it.

Any suggestions.
Thanks,

This is the kind of bike you can not just buy ,, Be really sure ,,, How about a kidney , Lung and a left eye .. Pint of Blood to seal the deal ,, Just be really sure , I have bought and sold all my life ,, somethings just can not be replaced ,, ..

I'm glad you said "left eye". I won't trade for reproductive organs....

I don't know how much this helps but I just bought a 82 GPz750 ELR green w/out stripes for $1,500. It is complete and 100% stock with a 4 into 1 and the stock exhaust. It was on eBay if that matters.
Nothing like your bike though. Very impressive. I have been planning to do what you did for 15 years!
Good luck whatever you decide. And yes, definitely think twice.
I would appreciate picking your brain for some of the mods though...
