    Just bought another junker

    Hasn't ran in GOD knows when, broken rear sets, high mileage, torn seat, missing side covers and factory exhaust, stupid anti-dive block off plates, Bandit carbs,etc.
    What's it worth?

    I bet you got a deal on her. I like the 140 gauges and am curious about the 4-1 pipe and bandit carbs.

      That's worth about $300 if I'm looking at it to buy.

      Many of the parts on it are so corroded and oxidized that they would take a lot of labor to make them saleable.

        It is worth at the very least $500 if the motor turns over. It is worth $700 if the pipes are not crushed.

          Was that bike along with another posted here in a CL ad a while back? Looks familiar.

            Too far gone for my liking............. However, you may have a nice stainless Supertrapp exhaust there!

              I just figured out what that is. The '83 1100e with the faster red paint - am I correct?

              Very desirable model.

                I was thinking the same thing.If the pipes good I'm betting cleaned up a bit it will be worth more than you paid.If you part it out I'd like to make a deal for the Koni shocks.

                  Finally dragged the disaster home this evening. Tomorrow I will unload it and see what I am in for.

                    If you don't want the block off plates I will trade you the complete anti dive units on my 82 1100E for those plates.

                      And I might be interested in the speedo or the entire cluster.

                        After three baths involving a quart of Awesum cleaner, a can of regular GUNK engine cleaner and a quart of straight Zep degreaser followed with plenty of high pressure air from my favorite tool (air compressor),
                        I have found a few good things and several problem areas that need to be addressed...









                        Worthless air breather filter that ONLY a bike REQUIRING a rebuild needs and Dyna ign.

                          I know we have all heard the term "That will buff right out" but I never would have thought that it was true!






























                          LOL! Now back to work...
