Picture one
Picture two
Guy says the engine turns just fine, frame has a clean titel , and all the parts are there. They are just taken off the frame. I have been looking for a nice long project to keep me occupied (I'm back from Antarctica and teaching science in Rural Mississippi. SUrprsiginly more boring than Antarctica.)
$700 seem like a fair price? I know there are a lot of unknowns but I am wanting to do a total rebuild so I am not too concerned

if you want it...then get it...it is only money.....
deals turn up so much that every time i buy something now(almost every time lol)the same item in better condition that i could never find...i now find ten for less the next week..like life is toying with my impulse buying...so i have decided to wait(easier said than done)and make sure i get a title and if it is more than few hundred it would need to be "REALLY" special......
but if you need a project...and the market there is kinda dry......well...you know...
good luck......you will be at or above 1200 before you smell exhaust in the shop imo

On the other hand, if those wheels are indeed a set of Henry Abe seven spoke mags (although painted hideously green) they might be worth half of the asking price alone if cleaned up properly, from what I understand those 19" fronts are getting rare.

I was going to say the same about those rims! If they are the old "Daytona" worth good $$. But are they Suzuki ad ons?

I'm not too concerned about the wheels and I'm looking for something disassembled with parts all over.
How did the engine look?
