Just curious on what you guys think is a fair price for a titled Gs750 bare frame......I mean bare no nothing frame only.........;)
 
I guess it depends on the availability but $100-$150 with a clear title would be reasonable. No luck straightening yours?

Parts bike

Parts bike

Most parts bikes have been molested and violated. You can look at it two ways. One, a bare frame is a good way to go. Lite and easy to transport. You can clean it and spray it, transfer parts and your done. Buying a parts bike leaves you to get rid of the remains or store the clutter. I personally would by the frame and restore done deal. Bmac
 
Typically they get 50 + shipping for a frame on ebay, but now ebay required titled frames to be listed as a vehicle complete with their ridiculous fees for doing so. I had a frame pulled from the good old bay because I didn't go through their vehicle listing. That might have changed recently but I'm not sure.

Obviously the type and year matters. A rare Katana frame is going to fetch more than most of the L frames, all things considered. The one frame I managed to sell on ebay before the policy change I repainted it and still got 50 dollars for it, not worth the trouble. It was 650G frame.
 
I have a 1982 GS750 frame untouched. Most in this area go for about $75 with bill of sale and $100+ if titled. Shipping these days is a complete other nightmare.

Dont waste your time on Fleabay for a couple days. Only thing listed are 1 GS750 swingarm listed a SG750 and a GS550 frame, but its an '05 and going for $400.
