Well if it is worth 7K to you fine.. Myself would offer 6K cash in hand and call you if want the cash .. But you are the one that makes the final call there ..

Here is a comparison with a current ad in Canada. Keeping in mind the dollar is almost par...I'd say you may have a good deal. Prices are higher up here.

this the closest I could find for comparison to what you are interested in.
a rolling chassis up here is advertised for $3500.
'80's and '90's sportsters are cheap.

Not wild about the whitewalls or the big-*** apes. Looks a little out of place. Just sayin............Also kinda high for what's out there.

Put your sentimental feelings aside and ask you’re self, is it really worth your hard earned coin. If yes go get it, if not well you know the rest. My .02

6k cash and that's being generous. You may have to stick some cash into it too, it may have stuff wrong that he's not saying. As far as original, it would have had a PoGo seat.

I'd say around 5-5500 would be a fair price for it, if it runs good, etc. JMHO, YMMV, etc.

I think a better question than is worth of X 000 is : Is it 1975 really? Perhaps papers are from '75, propably frame too and if you are lucky, engine also.

But everytihinge else could be from '70 -'00 or even later. Nothing looks like '75 - so if you want a bike for your birth year, forget this one - it doesn't matter, what the price is.

Keep looking and you'll find somewhere a real 1975 Harley and then the price is not the question number one!
