That is one sweet little low miles 175 on ebay just now, wish I lived in the US because I would be right round and buy that

8 bids, $1500, with 5 days left. I'm curious to see where it ends up.

This is the same one I posted in the classifieds about a week ago. It was only up on craigslist for 1 day before the ad was deleted and 5-6 days later it turned up on eBay. I suspected it was a flip but who knows, maybe the owner changed his mind and decided eBay was a better route.

Does look very nice, but I better focus on the project at hand (or in pieces...yikes!).

Unless I'm not mistaken that is a 200 not a 175.

But it looks like 175 engine? Exhaust flanges look horizontal not turned like a 200. Looks like a 200 speedo though.

Hybrid? 175 cylinders on 200 cases? Is that possible? (just trying to learn more about 175/200s)...

thanks

Ah so you all have seen the bike anyway, sounds nice in the video too, very smooth but idling a bit fast for my liking, I thought it was a 175 it looks very similar to the one I have in the garage apart from the headlight and speedo, however I'm no expert on Bridgestone motorcycles which I why I ask daft to you but important to me questions

There are no daft questions.

If we are talin about the $1500 -red, Georgia license plate on ebay. Looks like a first year 200 to me.

There was a rare MK11 RS on eBay last week Colin, not too far away from you in Sterling. If the engine hadn't been stuck $:-\$ I'd have been bidding for it, it went for next to nothing at about £200. I even priced delivery.

Hi Lee,
That is about 4 miles from my place and I wish you had pointed it out sooner, no matter I have messaged the guy because it looks like he might have other bikes, is that a Suzuki I see in one of the pictures ??

Looks like it is, I've seen a seller from Sterling list old bikes before, at first I thought it was your mate.

Well... whatever it is, it generated a healthy amount of "coin" on eBay.

Final bid : $4,050.00

It is about time these bikes are bringing the kind of dollars they should.
