Yep, the money he is asking is resonable, but……….

there will be someone out there, that shit is becoming gold when rego is taken into account, $58 a year is a strong attraction
Embracing mediocrity
One with rego on hold is the seller there, a going bike is worth the asking price, and the rest do what you like with it.
Anything vaguely functional in that age range is going for around that money, so while the purists might not see them as the most desirable of the breed there is still a market for a serviceable motorcycle of that era.

I had a couple of mates with them back in the day when they were cheap, and were short of money in between bikes. Heck I had a 550 when I was 19. But geez, why try sell 3 at once? It's at least 2 trips unless you have a monster trailer. It limits your market because you stubbornly insist they cant possibly be split apart especially after losing their mother in that forestry accident. Fuk sake.
Don't you look at my accountant.
He's the only one I've got.

Probably why they're still for sale.
Trouble is if you sell the one that has live rego, you're just left with a bunch of bits that's not worth the effort to get back to legal for the road.
So basically you're punting on finding a person with enough transport and garage space for the whole lot, otherwise it continues to sit in your garage.

You'd find some plonker to take the others singularly to make cafe racer attempts at the right price.

Fuck, they're ugly!
If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

What a shit ad. here's the text. All the text:
and four photos. None of the left side of the bike presumably its been down the road.Comes with all road gear but will be set up as a track bike, rego on hold.
Everything’s for sale at the right price but in the mean time I’ll use it for what I got it for.
Its also at least $5k too dear.

Heres what it looked like in 2013. Heres a picture of me riding it taken from the pits with a Nokia flip phone. And heres one after the crash with no screen and some race fairings.

"channellling the Pleideans"
What the fuck. I would have thought $9k was stretching it. .. but $19k?
and its hardly immaculate. And its not even stock. Ugh. I am OFFENDED. I am not even mentioning that seat.
JD Power have the value for "excellent" at $8500 USD down to around $5000 for "good to very good". Iconic sold one last year (August) for $7700US.
If you wanted one maybe you'd pay $10k? but a 900F would be half that (although some fuckwit FPO'd a not tidy one to me for $6kNZ last week)
Anyway: this guy is dreaming.

In the riders seat
A 900F is not an 1100, it comes with the stock seat, cant see you getting one for anything close to 10k, I'd say 12-14k if you're lucky
"If you can make black marks on a straight from the time you turn out of a corner until the braking point of the next turn, then you have enough power."
Low personal B.M.E.P.
A 900F is actually pretty much an 1100 under the skin. I'd argue - cos I've been there - that a worked 900 is a better bike than an 1100.
You're paying for the badging if you go after an 1100.
