Title: Fair price for this 85 Master F/F + Handlebars?

What do you guys reckon this should go for?
Would like something like this but don't have money burning hole in pocket (plus would still need to get the other bits!)

Any expert advice appreciated :)

cheers

Griff

thanks WIKMTA, so this one that went last night was probably a good buy then (spotted late last night with a couple of mins to go and no time to set up an ebay account or check if the guy would post to UK!)

Yeah that is a pretty good price, there is not much difference between the 85 & 86 Master's slightly different knurling on the rear dropouts/standers, so the forks would be fine.

The thing is, sometimes things go for silly money, I sold my Nos Chrome 85 Master F&F a few years ago for about £340 I think, the good thing is there are loads of them about, so just keep watching & you may pick one up for a good price  :)

Just remember if your buying from the US you will have to pay shipping & maybe import duty  >:(

Good Luck   :daumenhoch:

as above really you'll have post to go on that what will be probably 50 quid and if customs stop it you'll have the vat and import duty to pay i bought a full bike from usa a bit back was 300 quid but import duty and vat was nearly 100 quid on top , so think about that in your final bid  :daumenhoch:
