<><><><><><><><> <><><><><><><><> Rick, Looks to me like it's basically a stock bike with some maintenance history, basic suspension respringing, sub frame bolt upgrade,a Top Gun Chain guide roller and a water pump guard. I'm thinking it's probably worth about $2,500 or so and depending on what part of the world you're in it might be worth a bit more or a bit less. I'd probably advertise it at $3,000 and let someone talk me down a bit if it was mine.
