What's it worth?

Is an early '80s Ltd 440 worth anything? If so, what? It needs a new mirror and a fork seal, but that's it for safety. It's a chain drive. The newer ones were shaft I think. Any ideas on value would be great. Thanks.

I really like these bikes. Black and silver look great together. And that low slung seat is sexy. And all that chrome.... Cool!
I think you would be suprised what it will bring if you put it on E-bay in the spring. Bikes do not sell high this time of year .

I bought my 81 for $100 from a junkyard, fixed it up and drove it for a couple of years. Then I sold it in the fall for $300. It is a nice light bike for a beginner and great for the average size guy.

In a good market it can bring $800. Wait till spring or wait till we get a Democart back in the White House. Either one will bring a good price.
I saw a couple last spring get right up there.
