    97 Buell S1 Lightning. What's it worth?

    About 20k on the clock. My friend has one and he's thinking about getting rid of it. Any idea what they're worth?

    About 3k. That's probably on the higher end.

    What it's worth and what you'll get are two different things. 97 Buell about 2k if it's. Mint

    The s1's are definitely more valuable/collectible/blahblah than the x1's, fwiw.
    2-3k depending on how wild the thing is, IMO.

    I know, I already tried my 09 cbr600 fender, not close enough. I'll have to grab one off ebay.
