Yes, and maybe to somebody who wants that specific bike, it's worth
it. All I'm saying is that you can buy a lot of very nice newer,
running bikes for that kind of money.
Here is the Yamaha XS650 that I bought for $700 last summer, exactly
the way it looked after I drove it home:

It runs great and I'm having fun with it. I have had to do a few
repairs but not much. I personally can't imagine spending $3300 on a
non-running bike. Heck, last year I bought a non-running 1970 Chevelle
for less than half that.

Hi Phil,
Sounds like a lot for a bike that old that doesn't even run.
I got my 1981 Yamaha for $700 in running condition. I have since put
some work into it, but I'd say I've spent less than $200 in repairs (I
do the work myself) and it runs & rides great.
Of course maybe you'll find some enthusiast for that particular bike
who thinks it's worth a lot more, but there are plenty of newer,
running bikes that you can buy for $3300.
John
