    That Don't Look Too Bad to Me, Just a New Seat Maybe, Plastics seam Worn and faded and A Bit of Rust, But as long as it's still Solid. Maybe Bring $400 and it would be Yours I would Guess. as for it not being Started in 6 Months, Might be something as a Simple as a Fouled/Dirty Plug or Bad Gas, Maybe the Carb. If It Turns over, Maybe Bring a Compression Tester that Works to test Compression.

    Even at $400 its still junk to me and I pick tricks up all over in that condition. Do some math on what you will have to buy if you buy that and fix it up. I suppose its just my opinion but I think more will feel the same way.

    I don't usually pay that much for ones in that shape. If it was closer I would be interested just because it is an 87 BR. I would like to have one of each year BRs. I don't know why. I have a 85 and a 83. Wouldn't pay probably over $300 for it.

    DO NOT send any thing to whats his face (dirt-face/crasher) here on the board. What a scum bag. He screwed (stole) money from me and screwed me on my ME360 and Hondaline 300R engine rebuilds.

    If you think that is bad..... you should see my daily rider lol. If it does run and ride good, should be worth $500, $400 to get a fair deal. Worse case at $400, you have to part it out and end up making a profit ^.^.

    Lol just noticed the tires are all on backwards, thought it was just the front tire.... never understood why people put them on like that??

    If it had the side covers on it, the machine would be worth the 600 for sure, but in the condition that it's in, I'd be confortable making an offer for $400.00 beans

    You crack me up Captainweezy! And its only 2.5 hours away from me! not a horrible price honestly. I found one in wretched condition close by for almost that much. It doesnt look terrible, I would probably pay the price hes asking if it was running. But then again I want an 87 BR like crazy and have very poor judgement

    If that thing was near me I would jump on it asap ^.^, Not a very good one to fix up, but you can profit off the parts, and keep some of the hard to find ones if you need any ^.^.
