I know it's worth what someone is willing to pay but this seems about $1,500 too high to me or am I wrong?

I'm really looking for a 390 but haven't had much luck. I don't want to get into another bike I'm way upside down in.

Also interested in any open bikes in the EVO 1 or EVO 2 class if anyone has a lead.

I think the used dirt bike market including vintage bikes has gotten way out of hand. Too much for that bike imo but they may get it.

IMO no history, no fancy parts, maybe it is a $3000-$3500 bike to most folks or $4K to someone who wants one bad. Prices are crazy and it is definitely a sellers market but that still seems pretty high.

Yeah-- 450EXC is about right. That's about a 3500 bike $ 4,000 tops for the right guy. But without having some rare performance parts on it there's no way that is worth 6500, even in this market. And I'm a Husky guy,lol.

FYI , I have a co-worker that just finished an 81 YZ465 that is at least as clean as that 430, and he's thinking about cutting it loose (its a bit too much for him) he's sticking with his Husky XC250 and his IT 200. His number will be far more reasonable that that 430.

Prefer an euro/can-am but having difficulties so may have to look at Jap bikes.
