A friend of mine has a 1984 Standard or stripped version. He is wanting to know if anyone knows how many of those were made. I know it was the last year for the standard model.

Thanks in advance.

very hard to say how many exactly, the engine numbers in the haynes manual, subtracted show a number of 16,844, the frame numbers, subtracted are 22,7627 and 12,215

hope my fiqures are right, maths was not my strong suit. lol so I suppose a reasonable quess, would be somewhere between those fiqures.

anyway you look at it, they a very special bike for sure, a freind of mine has one, and has had a few offers, but it aint for sale! LOL

cheers,

$6000.00 us for a start sounds about right I would think,

we assume starting price here in NZ would be about $12000.00.

What I would really like is to find one that has been wrecked that I could snag an engine from to stuff into a 1000 frame. :action::action::action::action::action:

What the hell? You can get them for $2000 around here! I'd have to be insane to pay $6000 for an 84 GL.
Whiskerfish, we had two 1200 wrecks on CL, one was going for $250 the other for $100.

Lets see 6,000 miles round trip,truck and trailer 11 mpg, figure 1.80 a gaollon, I think that is pushing a grand right there. Add in food and hotels and now we are fast approachingtwo months of Mortgage payments!! :shock::shock::shock:

I asked this same question when I got the Standard last Spring. Never did get an answer. They sell $3500-$4000 up here morram, if they are in great condition.

We've been seeing a lot of gold lusting sellers lately. People asking $6000 to $8000 for 11 & 12 hundreds! For me an 1100 has to be very pretty and less than 12k miles. Same with the 1200s and then I'm only going as high as maybe $3200. It's like the CBR I resently bought. There are guys all over asking $6k plus for 04/05s and I paid $3.6k for the 06. Sorry fellers, these machines are no where near appresiating because they just are not that rare. Yesterday I found a beautiful 95 1500I and the guy is asking $3600. It's got 23k on it. I just might bite the snake if I can get the money out of the other 1500.

1200 in a 1000 frame? Not without a lot of torch and welder time.
