1970 xs1

[wyorat]

What would be an approximate value for a running 1970? The bike is pretty clean and complete. I don't need another project... but if the price is right.
Thanks.

Hi Wyorat,
One went on eBay for over 6,000.00 not to long ago . It all depends on condition though . But the XS1 is the first and most rare. My advice is keep it . Would love to see a picture .
Regards,

sounds like you are buying instead of selling.

Condition is the main factor. And yea pics or else can't even guess

Bike is for sale on Wyoming Craigslist if any body is interested.

Here's the listing:

Looks like a bit of a jalopy to me. Has the right tank and sidecovers, exhaust is not orig, nor are bars, seat. $1000 might be right if it runs really well, but will be paying premium for it's scarcity. Could be a good base for someone bent on doing a full resto...but maybe not.

Guy takes two pics, they are both of the same side of the bike, why do they DO that????

Lot's of stuff missing or needed but it looks like it's worth at least near a K to me. I'd buy it but it's a LONG drive from here.

650skull would kill to buy that bike for that kind of money but it's an even longer swim for him.
I do know a guy that lives in Lander. He might even have garage space.
