    Craigslist derelict, 1K & as usual 'no title' - 78 GS1000E

    Only needs to be 'ensambled'. Says it has tank, fender, nice seat but doesn't provide pics (sheesh).

    Somewhere there is a huge pile of old titles that mysteriously vanished into thin air over the years. I mean that's the only explanation, right?



    This bike It's pretty I have most of the parts Pipes Gas tank Nice Seat Front fender Carbs Gages You will need to ensamble Come with a Bill of sale no DMV record I have an old registration don't...

    Amazing what we see out there. Just a thought for seller, If $150 will get it registered, "YOU" get it registered then up the asking price by $150. Thinking many folks see a bike without a title, just a bunch of bike parts... Possibly could be an OK deal as if the tank turned out to be good, the tank itself would probably bring half the asking price, but thinking it'd be quite hard to take that big of a gamble

      They won't lift a finger, that's my experience. I did ask for pics of the other stuff but that may be too much effort too.

        So it's 'un-sambled'? $1k or best offer?

        Here's my offer: give me $150, and I'll clean out your garage.
        1982 GS1100E V&H "SS" exhaust, APE pods, 1150 oil cooler, 140 speedo, 99.3 rear wheel HP, black engine, '83 red

        2016 XL883L sigpic Two-tone blue and white. Almost 42 hp! Status: destroyed, now owned by the insurance company. The hole in my memory starts an hour before the accident and ends 24 hours after.

          You can’t get it titled/registered without taking it there if it’s out of the system as they have to look at the VIN etc numbers so that part makes sense at least…

            This is nothing. There are guys asking $10k for a "custom" bobber or cafe.

              It doesn't look bad, if he sends me some pics, I may be tempted. It's an all-day haul out to the high desert and back, then the paperwork - I'd check on the DMV site with the VIN first to verify back fees.
