if hes gone to the trouble of never putting gas or oil in it, Id say he would have a pretty good idea of what its worth...

if you can successfuly low ball him I will assume you used a jedi knight trick

New in box '73 Elsinore. Its a historic bike (first 2T from Honda). Would not be surprised if the owner wants 10k for it. Bike belongs in a bike history museum somewhere.

Yamaha CT3, RT3, MX125, SC500, Toy Prius, Diesel F250 (it all balances out)

For 10k, I'd ride it once and then put it in my living room.

what's this worth?

NADA values museum quality restorations at $7800. 
If this bike is legit and is still new in the crate, I
would estimate it's value at $10,000.

I would love to see some current pictures of a brand new
1973 CR250M.
