What do you think this is worth? Has the original plastics with warning labels that he is including and a new seat cover Front fender is cracked and tear in seat otherwise looks good cosmetically. Said he is second owner and has the original sales receipt, manual, etc. I’ve been looking for one for a while as I won my first race on one in 1990 and haven’t found much or they are destroyed, this seems like a good base. Talk me in or out of this!

Very nice, low hour bike. I keep noticing it in my searches, but what they are asking is a little high.


I think around $1,500-1,800 would be fair.....you'll still need to spend some $ freshen it up.


Great bikes back in the day....easy to ride fast, fairly reliable

It's a seller's market right now. Your probably look at low $2k for it in that condition.

I rebuilt one for a buddy and added 94/95 forks which were far better than the 90 forks. A pipe does wonders for that bike too.

If you are looking for one of these bikes, I would pay up to 2500.00. You will not find another one one this clean...and if you buy one that needs a lot of work you will spend a lot more than 2500.00. In the northeast this would be a 2500-3k bike all day... guys are asking 2500-3k for absolute junk the last 6 months...

Looks like I won’t be getting it. Went back and forth with the owner, I was stuck at $1800 and he said too low. I really didn’t want to go higher but said I would do $2k if he met me half way (he’s about 4 hours from me). Figured $200 extra wasn’t bad for a bike that looks pretty decent shape. He agreed to this and I asked for videos of it running/moving. About a week later he gets me video, doesn’t sound too bad, sounds loaded up when he’s running but whatever. During the time I’m waiting on video I’m doing research on cost of what I’m going to have into this when I’m done, looking like $3.5-4K. We are supposed to met up today (Sunday), Wednesday he text me asking me to drive another hour. I text back that I’m good with our agreed upon deal, if he doesn’t want to meet me half way I’m ok with it as I’m not sure I’m still totally into spending that much on a bike I’ll probably ride for an hour a year. Haven’t heard back from him since, so guess deal is off..oh well, I’ll spend the money updating my modern bike that will get more use and I’ll just keep looking at others old RMs 😝

early/mid 90s MX bikes really seem to be gaining popularity!
