He paid $175 for it. $5000 is only a 6 billion percent profit. :laugh: A 1973 Z1 junk is not worth that. Oh wait 10/72 makes it a 1972. That makes a huge difference. If it was made 11/72 not worth nothin, but 10/72 makes it a gem.
321,000 miles on KZ's that I can remember. Not going to see any more.

Yeah, but it is a pretty crappy gem...still overpriced...perhaps $2000-3000 for that low series. The only things salvageable are the frame and motor...all else is junk.

Does a low serial number REALLY make that much price difference? The wife's 650 LTD is number 00140, and runs.

If pro is opposite of con, then what is the opposite of progress?

if i had a 73 z-1 in the 30,000's(which i do)and it was cherry(which it is not even together) but if it was decent...say 5000 worth in general...and i put the bikes stuff on a low number like that...and restored iot....would i be in the hunt for a 15000 z....or if i was big money....would i then have the bragging rights to special z???

maybe then it is worth 5000 to the seller because he knows it's rareness......B)

Auction has ended, 1 bid @ $5500.... :blink:

Anyone want to bet on a Dr Pepper that the buyer backs out and this goes on auction again?....

Seriously, it would cost you another $5K plus to restore and without engine stamp numer, who knows... I guess at total restore you'd find someone will to cash out $10K plus...

Hell, you'd have to ask closer to $15K or what, no profit... naw.... maybe in Japan or elsewhere but I can;t see this pricing at all....

But hey, WTF do I know.... :blush:
