hey, ive been reading on this forum and decided to join on with a question about a 1982 gl500. my neighbor has on that is not in terrible shape but definitely needs to be restored. it cranks and has started but if you dont hold the throttle almost wide open it dies. i am sure that it is the carbs needing to be cleaned. the bike overall is not a horrible looking one and i do like the twisted engine look. so he is looking to sell it for 500 bucks and i don't think for around here for that bike it is too much? he said he will happily hold the title while i pay him a little each week to get it. so i guess im really asking is 500 to much? i will be doing all the repairs as i am pretty handy at building and rebuilding 4 wheelers. oh it has 17,000 miles and decent tires. thanks

Snag it ASAP if you're interested, if he offers it to anyone else or puts in on CL or whatever, it'll be gone in a NY minute for $500.



17000 miles is nothing for that bike, and even if you farm out the carbs to larry and do the rest yourself, you'll be into it for less than a grand. A no brainer if you want a reliable bike for next to nothing compared to other similar or comprable models and makes.
