Hey now. I paid $350 for my "classic" bike. I am a welder at a scrap yard in Southern Illinois, and someone scrapped a 1981 KZ750 LTD, that runs and rides. The license plate was still valid on it. Fork seals shot, stem bearings crunchy. About $50 and an afternoon working on it and I ride it damn near every day. The biggest mod I have done to it is get rid of those OG 80s grandpa spec tricycle lookin bars, and slapped a set of Renthal bars on it. Got those from work too. Immaculate shape, cost me $1.60 to buy out of the scrap.

The number one was likely not the owner actually thinking they had a gsxr, nor is the price at 2000$ I bet they didn’t know what bike it was, just that it’s a Suzuki , but Facebook forces you to put a model, and they only let you set price within a certain range , you can’t list that year gsxr for less than 2k . I’d bet this is all explained in the description or maybe they intended to explain if people message them. I’ve seen this a lot so don’t ever let it turn you off to a possible buy , that owner might let it go real cheap. You see this with cars a lot too. Usually they set the price at 1234$ or 12345$ and that’s your clue that it’s not the actual price.

#5 - might not be a suitable resto, but maybe for that price someone could cobble something together that's rideable. Strip off what's left of the plastic, probably need a new seat (maybe find one used), figure out some way of mounting a universal headlight, if the rest runs that could get you a decent bike cheap. Not pretty, but functional. A "Rat Bike" or "Survivor" as I've seen them called. More info needed, obviously, but I would be inclined to investigate further.
