I think $500 is fair but try to bargain him down a bit. You can expect to spend a lot of time doing the carbs and all the normal seals that wear out just from time, not necessarily mileage.
Get some $100 and $50 bills then test the market after you've researched the FAQ threads and can talk the language associated with the bike.
You'll definitely need to go through the carbs and at the very least replace the mechanical seal and the shifter seal. There will of course be other things but you might be able to get the carbs working with a good dose of B-12 Chemtool or SeaFoam in the tank for a while to clean out all the old varnish.
New oil and filter is a must at first, probably a lot of condensated water in there.
Someone's usually here 24/7 to help out but in order for us to be of better service, if you buy it (I would) fill out the rest of your profle and include a small signature line.
