Thanks for all the replies. The first thing I noticed was the triple tree and the powder coated wheels.I'm really not looking for anything collectable.I just thought it was a nice clean S set up.I think the price is too high for what it is though.On the other hand Max BMW in Troy,NY has a very nice 1978 R100S in smoke red.Beautiful bike,if I only had an extra $10,000 I would own that one.
I think the asking price is probably pretty fair considering the condition. The visible upgrades (in my opinion), are worthwhile and not inexpensive. These include the brake lines, shocks, triple clamp, etc. All things that I have done to my /7 (and am in the process of completing on my RS). Collectible or not, $4800 isn't bad for a clean airhead in good condition, especially in that year range with appropriate upgrades. Just my 2 cents...
