All the parts are there?
Motor is sealed?
Frame is good?
All parts are good just taken off?

Hell yeah 2k is a good price, if you can put it all back together.
Just depends, you want to make sure it is all there and like I said if the engine is in pieces I would pass.

Any pics??

Why is it all torn apart? How many miles on it? what shape do the parts appear to be in? Carb or marrelli fuel injection? How much mechanical experience do you have? Is the motor intact? Replacement parts are expensive even at swap meets. I'd look for a complete running bike. At least you have some idea what you're getting into.
It sounds like a risky venture to me.

I'd jump on it. Give me a chance to get in the motor and build it the way i wanted, it's already apart so painting it the color(s) i wanted,would be easy, and i'd know every inch of it. I'd say even doing what you want, you'd have less money in it than buying one together, then tearing it down to do what you want.

It's apart for a reason, and the reason probably isn't good -- or is "good enough" to avoid the bike...

Every basket case bike is apart for a reason, sometimes because a novice mechanic wanted to "see" if he could fix it and got his butt kicked, and sometimes because its a project that was way over the head or budget of the guy that took it on. Either way, by the time the guy has decided to sell the project has some real difficulties build into it.

The question is this, are you the guy that can take what you find and make it work without it costing more then a complete bike might have cost? You have to figure some of the parts are crap and need replaced and the rest need work. This does not mean someone could not take this project and make/ save some money for it, but are you that guy?

If you and you have the cash and time, go for it.
If not, pass it along and save your time and money.
