i dont know really this one is original and unrestored. It had been in storage and was up at 1850 but i noticed the oil didnt circulate right (dry sump) so i got the price of a possible damage and fix off. It turned out to be the oil pump drive shaft splines so it cost me 18.99 and about an hour to fix . a restored one the sky is the limit i suppose depending but i have seen later ones (this is a rigid more desirable in theory?) for 2.5k in half right condition but about 1500 is good going for any of them. Personally i always favour an original unrestored bike then you dont have to mess about as you have all the right parts and know what is was supposed to look like
