I have a 83 GS1100e, red, 12,000 miles, been sitting awhile. I would say its a 6 out of 10. Runs, all original and complete. Clean title. I want to sell it. Can someone tell me roughly what to ask for it. Thanks

Without seeing a photo, totally a guesstimate...$1750.002@ \'78 GS1000 -
Bike could be worth $3K or $250.
A wide range but like was said, need pics to make better analysis.

6 out of 10 is pretty bad for a bike with 12,000 miles. Is the tank dented?
If no dents and the paint is decent (been sitting inside) I would say $1000-$1500 for a running GS1100ED is a reasonable range. Assuming it is not abused and original, then the number could/ should climb, although the North East has some pretty low numbers for such bikes compared to So Cal for instance.
You should wash the thing and take closeup pictures and a video of it running and a walk around. That will bring top dollar.Comment

I was going to say between $2 and $3k, off the top of my head.
On the downside, only 6 out of 10, and if it's sat awhile, how do you know it's running?
Upside, 12k is very low mileage, and the '83 (red) 11E is arguably the most desirable of the air cooled Superbikes.
Of course geography, season, and plague all play a role. But anything less than $2k for a running 12k 11ED is bargain basement.1982 GS1100E V&H "SS" exhaust, APE pods, 1150 oil cooler, 140 speedo, 99.3 rear wheel HP, black engine, '83 red

bear these things in mind, too: 1. We are cheap b@ztards here. 2. The market for buying bikes right now is in the same place all those non-flushable wipes are; in a big fatburg in the sewers somewhere.Comment

I had one of the people on this site offer me $1200 site unseen. That worked for me. Thanks AllComment
