I found a 1971 Bonneville motorcycle that I'm thinking of buying. I saw it yesterday, but the lighting in the warehouse wasn't too great. Here's what I was told about it:
Purchased new in 1971 by the now deceased owner. Owner died in 1972. Bike has about 1500 miles on it. Wife kept it in the garage until January of 2012, then gave it to a fellow who was a family friend. Family friend owns an auto wrecking yard and wants to sell the bike. He's thinking of $ 4,500 to $ 5,000. What do you guys think? Too much?
Just looking for some estimates
Thanks
Jim
