$8,500 - $12,000 depending on how "stock" it is and perhaps the color. | ||

It is bone stock from what I understand... I know we haven't touched it  He tells me it's an RSS (but one of about 68). | ||

68 would be about right . . . there were a number of RS's that got "morphed" to RSS. Tell tale will be the instrument panel. See if this helps . . . I have 2 DVD's . . each with 4GB of RS/RSS photos and build sheets . . . but this should allow you to see what you have. If you have a VIN I can tell you EXACTLY what you have, the day it was built (actually several days) and who built it.  This is a RS dash  This is an RSS build sheet  Brake may look like this . . .  RS Dash (note the lack of oil temperate gauge)  Real RSS  RSS Dash  1988 1989 brake  RSS Dash  RSS  RSS Dash  1988 or 1989 brake I'm nuts about this stuff . ..  . . .hope this helps. | ||

Thank, Court. I know I said it was bone stock, but it did have a brake upgrade. Original owner put the dual disc set-up on it. Keep in mind, I haven't seen it yet. | ||

Pammy: The issues on values depends on RS or RSS, RSS being more rare and of higher value (of course), mileage, condition, etc. RSS more rare. Some nice low miler RS models haven't sold on eBay this past year for as low as $5000 and up to $7000. Some not so good ones haven't topped $1500 in re-listings and have not sold. The underlying issue is Market Value and Market Price. Market value is perceived value across a market survey. Not enough bikes made, or changing hands, to get a sense of what it should bring. Market price being what someone will pay for it. A lot of decent collectibles are coming out of the woodwork and not getting asking price. eBay just tells you what eBay buyers won't pay for it. Now, while I like the RSS, I don't want one myself, so I'm not in the market. Therefore, with no dog in the hunt, I'd say Badweb is a good place to put out feelers, but times are tough in the trades and the market is slow, at best. If the owner wants to sell, it will most likely be through a private sale and not an auction. Should he just want a valuation, prices noted above are certainly in the ballpark. | ||

>>>Court, the guy that owns this bike thinks that that is his bike in the picture. Which photo . . . I've got files on a number of the RS and RSS bikes. | ||

Court this is my RSS the photo of the red one. I bought it two years ago in Davie Fla but the bike title was New Jersey. My bike has the same hand grips,air cleaner cover and chromed chain gaurd which is not stock.Any info would be helpful I am not sure if it is for sale yet. I know if I let it go I will never get another one. | ||

Did you buy Rick C's RSS? If so, I think I have an entire folder on it. . . it is a PRISTINE example of an RSS. | ||

Great Buell! | ||

Iam not sure what the name on the title was I bought thru a broker I want to say it was Thoms River NJ where it was title. But looking at the photo I am sure that is the bike. When I bought it the milage was at 1000 and I have taken it out on a couple of Sundays and I now have a little over 1300 miles on it. Tonight I will look at the vin and post it for you. | ||

i did'nt keep the vin. but the red RSS pic is the same bike that was auctioned on ebay a couple-3 yrs. ago. it was in a collection in NJ. had the dual disc setup. i was 2nd high bidder.... not that that matters. nice bike andyh |
