This was a chopper
« on: February 26, 2015, 09:38:32 PM »
When I bought this bike, it had ape hangers and a bobbed rear fender. I brought it back to resemble a BMW.  It's a 500cc and I think the year was in the 50's
The pic. was taken in 1969. Anyone have an educated idea of what it would be worth today?

In that condition, in my area - which is pretty much the same as your area-in the summer you could generally sell it for around $10K in a private sale.   A dealer sale would be a bit higher.
