What is it worth? 81 kz1100

So the girlfriend wants her own bike. We have been looking for awhile with little luck.

This showed up on Craigslist late last night. The seller says it runs good, but could use a carb and valve adjustment to run smoother. Is selling because he moved to an apartment and doesn't want it sitting out.

He is asking $700. The girlfriend says she doesn't want an 1100 but would be willing to trade me for either one of my 750s or 440s.

Forgot to add the picture. I'm don't have high hopes but am trying to see it today.

The one picture looks clean.

If it runs and has a title $500 or so sounds reasonable to me.

Worth? Well actually probably worth more than the asking price, what's it worth to you?

For only $700.00 :woohoo: you'd better snap that up quick or it will be very gone very soon.

Will be checking it out in about an hour.

As far as worth...the question is do I want to give up one of my 750s or 440s...seems like a no brainer, but I'm emotionally attached lol

I'd buy it & sell it for 1100.00 -1200.00 & you'll have some extra cash to buy the wife a better bike,

I think it's his girlfriend not his wife, but marriage might be one way to not have to part with one of your existing bikes :0

Literally pulled up to the guys house, while the dude was loading it on a trailer. Missed it by about 5 minutes.

That's why i always make sure th y know im buying and that it needs to be there cuz im coming to buy it

I called the guy an hour before showing up letting him know I was on the way with cash. Told him I would be taking it home, wasn't going to drive that far and not. I asked if he had any other appointments set up, he said no. Told me 4:30pm was the soonest he would be available. I pulled in at 4:15 and watched the bike leave on another trailer. Drove a good 45 miles too, Absolutely hate sellers like that.
