Price check please~!?

So i bought a 78 cb550 k 4 that has a great engine, 36kmiles, i had the carbs: rebuilt/synched, i found a brand new gas tank for it(yes brand new!! with a nicepaint job :)) ) gas tank and installed it, a new fuel filter, clubman handlebars, tune up, oil change, new battery, new rectifier, and had the stator rewound. Stock exhaust in near perfect condition, original owners manual and tool kit with all the pieces to the kit. Tires have medium wear, and the fork seals are leaking a tiny tiny bit. I Have receipts for everything. clean and clear title.



Was planning on keeping it really, especially because its now ready to ride, but stuff happens. It looks really nice, its a shame to let it go... how much would be suitableto ask for this bike? 2500? i wish. lol.Price check please~!?What do we look like the grocery story where cashiers call out %26quot;I need a price check please%26quot;?



If you paid $475 for a stator, you got ripped. There are better aftermarket units made for those bikes at half the cost. And by the way-on japanese bikes the rotor is always inside the stator-that is how the juice is produced on the bike-rotor %26quot;rotating%26quot; inside the stator (stationary).



Since you apparently know how to use the computer, you could have searched for your answer on someplace like say kelly blue book or even ebaymotors to see what these bikes go for.Price check please~!?lol, best and worst answer. Do you feel better about yourself? So much angst and entitlement seeping through those words! Get over yourself, or just your insecurities, i think the former just follows through automatically when completing the latter. Simmering in dumb sauce til al dente.

Price check please~!?And yes im sure an aftermarket part is better than a brand new freshly wound stator? or equal to? Why are so many motorcycle mechanics dbags?

Price check please~!?I'd say $1,500 to $1,800. All depends what someone is willing to pay. Last I knew though these bikes are becoming more collectable. Advertise it on Craigs list for $2,000. Good LuckPrice check please~!?all that you have done means nothing as it would just be classed as routine maintainance..and repair.

The bike unlessit has provenance is only worth 1200 if in excellent condition and 800 if with years ticket and tested for the road..

Sorry.Price check please~!?Your probably only gonna get 1500-2000. I would post it on ebay with the reserve of what you want. This way you get what you want plus you might get more if someone wants it bad enough.
