      Depends on how many miles are on it... It needs brakes, wheel bearings & seat that we know of, tires are 3/4 worn and/or dry rotted. He already bought a battery & fuel pump for it (it might also be due for a new clutch, stator, chain, sprocket,etc..soon) and is scratched up/dented gas tank from being dropped.... If it has say 50,000 miles, it's not really worth more than what he paid for it. His profit will be made from doing the DIY repairs/labor which will make the bike worth a bit more money....You can buy an 04 GSXR 600 or 750 in very good condition with 18,000 miles for $3,000 I just seen a really nice one for sale Marathon FL asking $3,400 for it. It comes with a couple bike covers, security chain, helmet, gloves, jacket and lots of new parts. I highly doubt the seller is "punching air" right now

    Hey, I noticed your FI light was on. That may be the C28 code for STVA. You may have to re solder that to get it right. It is a known failure but easy to fix. You have to take the piece off, remove the rivets and re-solder the connection and it will be good for another 20k miles. The natural vibrations of the bike cause the solder to break. It effects the butterflies which is why you were limited in range. It also effects the idle as well.

    if the pump has rusted the tank is prob flaking bad which will stuff the pump pick up. injectors need a clean out as well as the lines and rail. riding her in that condition is cooking the engine. seriously lean fuel , most prob the filter is already blocked with rust. watch the seals on the front and rear suspension and brakes. still a fun project might break even.

    This was a steel man!!! Damn good find. I only have one question. WTF DOES A FRONT FENDER ELIMINATOR KIT LOOK LIKE. I’ve never heard of a front fender eliminator kit. Only a fender eliminator kit. And it has always only been the rear fender that holds the plate. The only plate that bikes have. On the rear fender. Where the eliminator kit comes into play. To delete or ELIMINATE the fender that holds the plate. The fender that comes stock on bikes. That comes stock on the rear of the bike. That most of us eliminate for looks. Hence, fender eliminator kit. Never once referred to it as a REAR FENDER ELIMINATOR. Because that would imply that there are other fenders that are able to be eliminated. So yeah. DAMN GOOD FIND!! BUT WTF IS A FRONT FENDER ELIMINATOR KIT? There is only one fender on bikes, and that is the fender that comes stock on the rear end of the bikes that hold the license plate. That is also why they only give you one plate for your bike at the DMV. BECAUSE THERE IS ONLY ONE FENDER THAT BIKES COME STOCK WITH AND ITS LOCATED ON THE REAR OF THE BIKE!!! Where the fender eliminator kit comes into play. To get rid of that ugly fender that comes stock on most bikes, if not all. As you can tell, this is one of my pet peeves. Information sent out to the next generation of riders must be fact checked!! Or you become responsible for the younger generation becoming stupid and ignorant!! Bikes only have ONE STOCK FENDER, located on the REAR of the bike. It’s ugly and unsightly. So most of us delete or ELIMINATE it with a FENDER ELIMINATOR KIT. THERE ARE NO FRONT FENDER ELIMINATOR KITS FOR THESE BIKES, BECAUSE THEY DONT REQUIRE THEM. Please clear this up so I can go on thinking that you are an awesome dude that just made a little mistake and don’t actually think that there are front fender eliminator kits out there!!😂 HAVING SAID ALL THAT!!! THIS IS A DAMN GOOD FIND AND I HOPE YOU FLIPPED THE HELL OUT OF IT AND MADE SOME GOOD MONEY!! Even if they used a “FRONT FENDER ELIMINATOR KIT”. 😂😂😂😂

    make sure to check the fuel pressure and flow rate of that new fuel pump could be why it wont rev past 8k had issues with a after market one I bought from "fuel pump factory" new and flowrate test was 80ml under don't recommend after market pumps oem is the way to go.

    the bike sounds like that because it has an exhaust and its still cold thats why it's smooths out after a few min when the bike is warm, and never buy a bike without checking the rust in the tank because it'll mess up ur fuel pump and injectors and clog a bunch if stuff, and please be cautious of that oil light, the bike been sitting for 2 years, shoulda changed the oil as soon as u got it, check the SVTA or the air pressure sensor if it still doesn't pass above 8k rpm, could also be because rust in injectors but for 1200 not bad I guess
