    Low miles and original owner will attrack a few people to over bid. I feel that taking the tank issue in mind, there is something else going on with this 750. But, not my money so not my business.

    Someone just brought up the photo of the fuel tank (I presume) and asked for more clarification. I admit, I couldn't tell what was going on either just by that photo.....

    "Could you please ask the original owner what the picture is of with the scuffs and what looks like Bondo, I’m assuming it is the front of the gas tank but not quite sure, and maybe a bit more history on that thank you so much!!"

    If this 750 was perfect, I could see 8k for this. It's far from perfect.

    The tank alone is going to be a big issue. That coating is gone after the first fill.

    The carbs definitely sound off as well. $960 in labor to get it running like that? I paid less than half of that with shipping included to have mine completely gone through and running perfectly.

    $840 in labor for brake system rebuild? Glad I did my own.

    Hopefully whoever buys this isn't in over his head and completes the project with the attention it deserves.

    Buyer will probably have iconic do the work. It’s gonna be $2000 plus to everything, including the tank, done correctly.
    Poor devil …

    Not trying to be argumentative but....

    The bike is in Florida and Iconic is in California.

    I guess if the buyer ends up being from/in California, and that is where the bikes gets transported to - Iconic has a better chance of doing work on it. Otherwise who ships a bike across the country to have work done on it?

    No worries Bazz .. I forgot it was in Florida !
    CRS I guess …
    Yea unless he does the work himself it’s gonna be crazy expensive.
    I was looking at the vfr700 project bike. Took a close look… needs a lot!
    I would have to get it for under $300 to make it worth my while. Nice bike though.
