    That's a solid price for a parts bike for someone who already has a good one.

    That's about what I thought.
    I'd hate to think what it would cost to do a proper restoration on it.

    CX500 turbo for $800, with a broken camshaft (and probably otherwise in rough condition).

    Only way to break a cam in one of those is either to seize it or have the cam drive break. Either way, finding a cam is easy, it's what else is broken....

    IMO no one would want it for a parts bike as all the turbos made are parked up in collections and never get run. I was shown one here in ChCh with delivery miles on it only. Still like that afaik.

    It would be non interference motor I should think, so it shouldnt be beyond fixing...if someone were sick enough to want to.

    (Oh yeah .. and it won't be a LAMS bike ... the seller doesn't claim it is, but I doubt many prospective buyers know it is not .. )

    $9k and not registered. He's hardly ridden it - surely getting it legal has been the trouble?

    This is a custom bike built for me just recently, only had it for a month now and have only had the chance to ride it a few times.
    ... selling within a month when custom built for him?
    Measure once, cut twice. Practice makes perfect.

    This looks already registered. OK its $500 more expensive but the rego plate alone makes up for that. Resale value?

    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.
