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

Returning Visitors
If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.
If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.
Without seeing a photo, totally a guesstimate...$1750.00
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.
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.

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.
